Hmmm...

Yeah, off the well-beaten trails. Sounds more like me. Maybe two trails W/a cross country jaunt to join them. Maybe the nicest part of the Colorado Trail and a hike over to another nearby trail, say a week's hike away.

I've been feeling this coming for a couple of years now. It's getting to the "critical mass" stage.

I've done the Grand Canyon in '08 and I'm doing the GC Hermit-Bright Angel trail in late April so that's out.

A Colin Fletcher tribute walk may be good.
