Checked out pretty much all tourist areas on the north and central parts of the park. These include:

Tawa & Kachina points: 1.3 mi.
Puerco Pueblo: 0.5 mi.
Newspaper Rock: 0.1 mi.
Blue Mesa: 1.0 mi.
Agate Bridge: 0.2 mi.
Jasper Forest: 0.1 mi.
Crystal Forest: 0.3 mi. (didn't finish trail)

Blue Mesa was a particularly interesting hike, as it takes you down into the area to hike a short loop.

Hope to finish the sites on the south end sometime down the road...
