Escalante and Boulder received about 1 foot of snow around a month ago and there are still a couple of inches left to melt. The weather can not be beat with blue sunny skies and temperatures around 50 degrees this week. Perfect for overland hiking out on the desert.
As of 12/29/11, Davis Gulch has alot of water in it, so keep this in mind when thinking about hiking in a slot canyon this time of year. Spooky & Peekaboo may also have water in them and it will be very very cold. Be sure to check current conditions at our local visitor center before heading out. 435-826-5499.
