A few weeks ago I backpacked Colorado's Dominguez Canyon Wilderness between Grand Junction and Delta. This was a 46 mile loop up Big Dominguez Canyon, then connecting to Little Dominguez via seldom used roads and trail on the Uncompahgre Plateau.
1/4 of the trip was off trail and bushwhacking. This place has some great canyon scenery including petroglyphs and waterfalls and looks more like UT than CO. Rather than rewrite the report that I already wrote on my blog, here is the link with over 100 pictures and the full detailed report.

Here are a few photos to get an idea.
