Exursions' 2009 Multi-Day Trip Schedule-
Six to Eight guests per Excursion. Rates are posted on each of the corresponding pages.
Welcome to our 2009 overnight schedule. This year, we are glad to offer 7 overnight canyoneering excursions into Utah’s most pristine and beautiful backcountry. Glen Canyon and Grand Staircase trips will be in the early Spring and late Fall, to take advantage of the warm temperatures, desert flowers and lonely canyons. On the Summer excursions, we will head up to Death Hollow and enjoy cooler temps, plentiful water and endless exploring opportunities. We are happy to schedule a Kaiparowits trip for anyone who feels like "donating a little skin” to enjoy America’s most remote and undisturbed plateau. Vehicle and backpacking basecamps will be fully stocked with good food, comfortable and warm accommodations and a view you will never forget!
Please visit the Glen Canyon, Death Hollow and Kaiparowits pages to get a basic understanding of what these different excursions offer. Then you can call us at 1-800-U-EXPLORE(839-7567) or send us an email at info@excursionsofescalante.com. We are glad to answer any questions that might be helpful in choosing and planning your Escalante adventure.
