Escalante is amazing with trails to hike for weeks. You need to get a lottery ticket to gain access and the Park Service gives them out every morning. Do not go without letting a park ranger know where you are. Slot canyons/terrains that you can easily get very lost in.

Escalante in general is beautiful. If going into the hikes in the interior must get a lottery ticket given out by the park service. Do not go into slot canyons without notifying ranger where you will be. Very easy to get lost in. Harsh terrain.
