South Utah Strips around Zion and Bryce

Any Utah guys have some recommendations for some fun strips around Zion, Bryce and Escalante areas? Heading there the third week in May. Got the fly Utah book but have only been on the ground thru those areas. Thanks!

Re: South Utah Strips around Zion and Bryce

Nothing really to rave about airstrip wise down there.. Dirty Devil further north. Happy Canyon. The better strips are up around Green River and Moab area. However that is not to say that the flying there is not good.. It is pretty amazing scenery flying over Escalante and seeing the desolation then all of a sudden an oasis down in a narrow canyon.
