Southwest Backpacking Vacations

The canyons of southern Utah offer fantastic opportunities for solitude and discovery for those willing to strap on a backpack and head out into the wilderness. From the canyon mazes of Canyonlands National Park to the towering walls and cavernous alcoves of the Escalante, you can delight in multicolored rocks layers, beautiful creeks and waterfalls, stunning natural arches and the starriest night skies imaginable.

Yosemite’s remarkable landscape features breathtaking mountains, deep valleys, majestic meadows, ancient sequoias, wild rivers, massive granite domes and much more.
