 The Grand Staircase Lower Canyons multi-sport adventure provides exploring, camping, and backcountry mountain biking opportunities so vast and picturesque that the rest of the world will seem to shrink in comparison. Between the Grand Canyon and Capitol Reef National Parks, a series of brown, red, white, gray, and pink cliffs climb step by step on what explorer Zane Grey described as "a stairway to the sky." We ride our mountain bikes among red-banded spires, sandstone goblins, slickrock valleys, and petrified forests. Later, we overlook the Death Box Hollow Wilderness and the Dixie National Forest from our ride atop Hell's Backbone. Hiking along the Escalante River, we inspect canyon walls for ancient Native American writings and artwork and brave a dip into the brisk waters of cascading Calf Creek Falls. Escalante's lower canyons provide easy to moderate terrain, making this a great trip for all levels of cyclists, both mountain and road. In 2007, our Escalante support vehicle will be fueled by vegetable oil. Call or email us for booking, or to speak to a guide about this trip. 800.596.2953. |
