Highlights

canyonlands1
Explore Needles District of Canyonlands National Park, the less well-known or crowded part. The Needles District forms the southeast corner of Canyonlands and was named for the colorful spires of Cedar Mesa Sandstone that dominate the area. The district’s extensive trail system provides many opportunities for long day hikes and overnight trips. Foot trails and four-wheel-drive roads lead to such features as Tower Ruin, Confluence Overlook, Elephant Hill, the Joint Trail, and Chesler Park. Each day we will hike into and out of remote canyons, mostly on trails, with some backcountry hiking to see spectacular views of Monument Valley, Navajo Mountain, and/or the Henry Mountains.
