Your comment about hiking down into the canyon is by permit only is confusing. The only time we needed a permit was when camping in the canyon on the Escalante route and Beamer trail. We never had a permit for day hikes even in the busy spring time and we have hiked every trail from the Little Colorado to the Boucher rapids, sometimes multiple times.

Yes, you are correct. Sorry. I was thinking of hiking to the river and back. Which for most people will mean overnighting. Permits are required for overnight hikes in the canyon.
