Here's a link to my 2 week trail only* trip in Colorado.

I want to do the same in Utah soon.

That's a good plan - but the window Temporaryscapee has is April-July, so a bit too early for the high passes in Colorado - although you might be lucky if you left the Colorado sections until the end of the trip... similarly, you'd have to miss some of the key sections of the TAT if starting that early in the year too.
But as you suggest, plenty of riding in Utah (although you might have to miss the La Sal Mountains still), Arizona, Nevada, California - so you could easily put together an awesome cross-country on-road and off-road route essentially doing a huge lap of the Grand Canyon for example?
