Can those be done in the two days I have allotted for the northern Rim?


You really wouldn't have time to do those IMO. I would plan a separate trip for them. Its just too much driving for having only a week.

If you are going to add anything to the trip, I would check out Page and/or the stuff around Grand Escalante. Antelope Canyon is incredible, and Horseshoe Bend is a sight to behold.

You would only be adding 2 hours of driving time, as opposed to 10(or more if you stop by CRNP) hours if you go from Bryce to Moab and then to the North Rim.

Absolutely. Its a photographer's wet dream.

Some of my photos of Antelope:






















these are from another lesser known slot canyon in Page called Water holes Canyon. It was beautiful as well:














Horseshoe Bend:

Yeah. Just looked at a map. Definitely agree that’s more driving than I want to do in a week.

Photos above look incredible.

Gotta do the fly into LV and make the circuit and fly out of SLC or return to Vegas April or May work...Narrows will be to high to walk in Zion and there might be snow in some areas of Bryce and north....SWA right?

I visited Arches and Canyonlands in 2015, and we camped on the Colorado River for a night. It was absolutely majestic. It is like you are another planet. I definitely want to go back though, as we did not spend close to enough time at both parks. I was with some friends that just didn't want to go for a multiple miles on trails, and didn't want to stay in Moab for more than a day. It was still great, but I left feeling unsatisfied, so I have to go back asap.


I’m visiting Moab over Memorial Day Weekend...any must-do hikes around there you would recommend? I think I’m gonna fly into Grand Junction unless there is a better option.
