Day 2 · Guided Hike in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument

  1. Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument

    5 hours

    With a guide, guests will venture into one of Utah's most remote and rugged terrain.

    Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is a spectacular 1.88-million-acre landscape in Southern Utah, globally recognized as a "Science Monument" for its unparalleled paleontological and geological wealth. This rugged area is defined by the Grand Staircase, a massive sequence of tiered rock layers—the Pink, Gray, White, Vermilion, and Chocolate Cliffs—that span nearly 275 million years of Earth's history. The Monument also encompasses the remote Kaiparowits Plateau, a world-renowned site for groundbreaking dinosaur fossil discoveries, and the magnificent Canyons of the Escalante, a labyrinth of deep, winding slickrock canyons and washes ideal for true backcountry exploration. GSENM offers a profound wilderness experience, blending solitude, vast scenic beauty, and a deep connection to ancient cultural and natural history.

Day 3 · Anasazi State Park, and Return to Salt Lake City

  1. Anasazi State Park Museum

    2 hours

    Anasazi State Park Museum serves as a crucial interpretive center and preserves the Coombs Village Site, an important archaeological ruin that was one of the largest Ancestral Puebloan (historically referred to as Anasazi) communities west of the Colorado River. Occupied from approximately A.D. 1050 to 1200, the site once housed up to 200 people and shows evidence of being a significant trade hub with influences from both the Ancestral Puebloan and Fremont cultures. The park allows visitors to explore the partially excavated original village ruins and walk through a life-size, six-room replica of an ancient Pueblo dwelling, offering a vivid glimpse into the daily lives of these early farmers, builders, and artisans. The indoor museum exhibits thousands of artifacts—including pottery, tools, and bone implements—unearthed during excavations, providing invaluable insight into the complex society that flourished in the heart of Utah's red rock canyon country nearly a thousand years ago.

  2. Boulder

    5 hours
