I just read Tim Gray's email about snowfall in Bryce (in January). I was there in late December a few years ago, and saw a lot of snow and fog. Should I plan for snow in sourthern Utah and around Page, and the north rim of Grand Canyon the first two weeks of November? I'd like to venture off the main roads in Escalante. But at the same time, I want to be smart and now get myself snowed in on roads where I might not be found for days.
TIM ... thanks for the 'heads up' about not trying to photograph Arches, unless you have several days. I plan on allowing 4 or 4 days to shoot in Zion. But would not have that much time for other parks. What about Escalante? Capitol Reef? Canyonlands?
