    Great job, Kevin. Can't believe how many of these I have driven past on the way to another attraction. You sure can find them. Surprised you didn't mention Buckskin Gulch, which like Monument Valley, starts in Utah before going to Arizona. 14 miles are in Utah. BTW, it's pronounced POT-ash, just like the mineral.

    Excellent recommendations. I'd add Grosvenor Arch, in the desert east of Kodachrome Basin SP. If the weather is good, it's doable in a sedan. (If it's not, I'd recommend not going; there are creek crossings and caliche that can be a serious problem.) Also, if you're going ot Goblin Valley, you should really hit the Little Wild Horse Canyon to Bell Canyon loop trail, which is an excellent hike through two beautiful slot canyons, and only maybe 5 miles from the entrance to Goblin Valley on a paved road. I want to do Waterpocket Fold, south from Utah 24 along the edge of Canyonlands towards the Colorado River. Next time, maybe.

    Thank you so much for putting this guide together. You just made my next road trip to Utah much harder to figure out! LOL 😂😂 I usually travel there to the spots near Kanab (Wire Pass, Buckskin, Toadstools, etc), Bryce Canyon, Escalante, etc. Cosmic Ashtray’s been in my bucket list for some time now. I would recommend Peekaboo, Spooky and Dry Fork loop. And Zebra Canyon 👍 Also, if you go up the wash from Belly Of The Dragon, for what it feels like 3 miles or so it reaches a very small but cool slot canyon. I didn’t get too far into it, as it seems some climbing gear is required.

    Nice video but you couldn't be more wrong about the Narrows. The full top down overnight hike is a completely different experience than only hiking a couple miles north and back. On the full course you'll be hiking all alone in one of the most beautiful hikes in the world. And camping in the canyon is truly amazing. Hiking from the shuttle will be full of crowds and doesn't give the hike justice. If you ever do it I think you'll agree. Make a video on it.

    I’m sure you’re right. I bet it’s incredible, we’ve wanted to do the way that includes canyoneering/ rappelling but haven’t had someone who could guide us. I guess those comments were mainly for people looking for minimal mile hikes. We also had a permit for the subway a few years ago but sadly had to cancel it. Anyways, thanks for watching Jimmie!

    @@sonsofthesportsguy That's right. Depending on when you go (because there can be flash floods) for us it was simply hiking through the creek bed for two days. We went in August and there were two times when the water got above our waste. Both were on the first day before we got to our campsite. We had site #1 and it was amazing but no fires. You just need a permit for the hike, a reserved campsite (the hardest part) and a then hire a van service to take you from the visitor center to the trailhead.

    Great footage and awesome hikes, but PLEASE ask someone in Escalante how to pronounce the name - it is located in Utah, not South America… My mom is third generation born and raised in Escalante so she would know. And yes, pronunciation matters. Just ask the convict who got pulled over and told the police he lived in “Hurricane”. Hint - it’s not pronounced like the tropical storm 😉
