Hello. I am looking for recommendations for an overnighter in Canyonlands NP for Early April. Looking at Island in the Sky or the Needles as I think the Maze might be a little to rough for me. My first thought was to do Elephant Canyon or Chesler Park but I waited to long and those are all booked up. As of now Davis/Lavander Zone, Upper Salt 2, Salt/ Horse Zone, Butler/ West Side Canyon, Red Lake/ Graben Zone, and North Needles are available in the Needles. And all campsites are available in Islands in the Sky. I won't have a 4×4/SUV so anything with dirt roads to get to is probably out. Don't want something super hard as I will be with my girlfriend who is recovering from a knee injury. Seeing the best scenery, views, and sites is are 1st priority.

Salt out to Angel Arch and back is a good trip, no regrets there. The hiking is fairly easy and the water is relatively plentiful, both of which sound like they might suit you folks.

If you go to Island in the Sky, the Syncline loop trail is a great day hike. There are a few offshoot trails on this loop that would make it a good over-nighter too I suspect, if you wanted to take time and explore.
