I am looking for a 2 night - 0.75 day/1 day/0.5 day loop at Savage Gulf.
I see the North Rim, Connector, Stagecoach Historic, and South Rim loop would probably work. However, in looking at a video on youtube, the Suter Falls area looks spectacular, near the Collins West access point. Would the Collins Gulf and Stagecoach Historic with a side-trip to Stone Door also be a viable option? I'm not sure a side trip to Stone Door with the NR and SR trails would be doable in that time frame. I don't want to hike too fast (8-10 miles on a full day, max) as I like to stop and take photos and the days are short this time of year. This will be my first trip to Savage Gulf. So, any suggestions are welcome.
