    Overnight Backpacking in Escalante

    Looking for a good overnighter in Escalante. We're experienced hikers but have never been to this part of the state. Planning to go over Memorial Day weekend.

    There are so many canyons down there that would be great choices.

    40 mile/Willow Loop would be my #1 choice that time of year.

    Boulder Creek might be 2nd.
    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

    Little Death hollow through Wolverine Canyon is a popular backpack with water most of the way. It is easy to get to, but you will meet people.
