Canyonlands recommendations w/ rental car access

Post by big_load »

I'm considering a side trip to Canyonlands in November, or maybe in the spring, but I'll probably be driving a typical rental car. Does anyone have backpacking suggestions that work with that constraint? I've considered going as far as Horseshoe Canyon, but the road descriptions aren't encouraging.

Needles District is generally accessible by car to most trailheads. Need a permit though.
