The issue here is that such trails as the ones through canyonlands are remote and the rescue efforts can often be disastrous and tragic. Your Subaru has an off-road capability that is really fit for loose gravel trails with the potential for potholes. Do t believe me .. check the owners manual. The high clearance mandate is to protect you and your passengers, and prevent the need for tragic, disastrous rescue effors. I have a 4Runner, which has hefty clearance and offload capability, and it does fine in most parts of canyonlands NP. I wouldn't feel comfortable though traveling much of the park alone or without a sister vehicle that could winch or tow me out of being high centered. And while I consider myself an above average off-road driver, I wouldn't even consider something such as hells revenge because my vehicle just wasn't built for that.
