Planning a 6 day trip to The Maze District in Canyonlands National Park. This is a very remote section of the park where they recommend not relying on GPS, bring a map. We're planning to be there for the new moon in June which is on June 17. There is a maximum of 3 vehicles per camp site and we have 2 camp sites near each other each night while in the national park. TRIP IS NOW FULL WITH A WAITLIST.

I see a spot still open in the Rally Point. . . If that's correct I would like to join you.
 
I'm closing this now as we currently have 8 rigs who want to come and our permits only allow for 6 rigs. @Akicita (I don't know if tagging you works) I got your PM and I'm working it out, I'll get back to you before this weekend.
 
You guys will have a great time! Did this a few years back. Had a blast, stayed at the Maze Overlook #2 campsite.

Just did this trip last month, entering the Poison Springs Trail, crossing the dirty Devil River. In the Maze we camped at to Ekker Butte, Standing Rock and the Doll House. Last year was in the Needles District and this September will do the White Rim. These places are so close to the Maze, yet will take the most of a tank full of gas to get there. GPS worked great on the roads but download your maps for offline use. Have a great time!
