How to Use This Guide (Including Offline Access)

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE

This guide is designed to take the guesswork out of planning your Southwest trip — including destinations across Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and Western Colorado, with a strong focus on Southern Utah.

Inside, you’ll find clickable entries for my favorite hikes, overlooks, scenic drives, parks, restaurants, and more — all organized so you can easily build out your days without spending hours researching where to go next.

You can navigate the guide in a way that works best for you — search by keyword, map location, or specific trail/spot name to quickly find exactly what you’re looking for. You can also save your favorite spots and filter by tags or regions to start building your itinerary. I personally like going to the map view to browse spots in a particular area, but also really like filtering by tags. I've added specific and personalized tags to each entry to search by National Park, location, fees, sunset or sunrise, plus so much more. To search by tag, look for a filter button in the top left of the guide, select tags, then select see more.

Each section includes travel tips to help you prepare ahead of time — from water needs and road conditions to packing lists, navigation and timing. Don’t skip these. They’ll make a big difference in how smoothly your trip goes.

Whether you’re mapping out a full Southwest road trip, focusing on Southern Utah, or adding in surrounding states, you can use this guide to plug and play locations based on your route, time, and interests.

If you’re looking for something more specific, I also offer dedicated guides for Colorado fall colors, non-technical slot canyons in Utah, and Western Colorado specific locations.

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE OFFLINE

Cell service is extremely limited across the Southwest, so I highly recommend downloading your guide before your trip.

1. Download the Rexby app

2. Sign in to your account

3. Tap your profile (bottom right)

4. Select “My Purchases” — your guide will be here

5. Open your guide

6. Tap the download icon in the top right corner (arrow pointing down)

7. Tap the arrow to download the entire guide for offline use

Once downloaded, you’ll still be able to search locations, view maps, and navigate to trailheads — even without service.

Pro tip: Download it before leaving your hotel or any area with WiFi, especially before long drives.

CUSTOM ITINERARIES

If you’re looking for a more personalized plan, I also offer custom itineraries tailored to your timeline, interests, and travel style.

These itineraries include detailed recommendations, route planning, and guidance on permits, timing, and logistics — but all bookings (hotels, permits, tours, etc.) are your responsibility to secure.

If you still want help pulling everything together, I’d love to create a custom itinerary tailored to your trip.
