The Big Picture

The Needles region of Canyonlands National Park is one of the most well-kept secrets in America and represents the very heart and soul of the park. To enter the really pristine areas of the park, you must either hike many miles or be an accomplished four-wheeler. Tag-A-Long Expeditions removes these boundaries by providing you with 4WD drive access. As soon as you enter the Needles, you will see the geology remain much the same as other districts of canyonlands. Once you’ve climbed over Elephant Hill the geological namesake commands the scenery. This one-day expedition will be a long day. We find you have done some research about the area when you consider a trip over Elephant Hill. Our office staff is standing by to complete the arrangement with you.



The Details

Your adventure begins early this morning at Tag-A-Long’s office where we’ll board sturdy, air-conditioned 4WD vehicles for our trek into Canyonlands National Park. The drive to the park is especially scenic, upon two hours worth of pavement. We can integrate many of our Needles Archeology (ND0) points of interest or spend our time over the Hill accessing the Joint Trail or confluence overlook trails.

A trip over Elephant Hill is arduous for a single day. We certainly recommend our longer itinerary (ND2). A delicious lunch prepared and served by your guide will restore your energy before we continue to meet your vacation ideals as will be worked out when we talk to charter this day trip in the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park.
