Which trail should I take for a 5-day Arizona primative camping trip?

I live in Decatur, Georgia, next to Atlanta, and am planning a solo 5-day primative camping trip in early October within 100 miles of Flagstaff. My criteria are:

–water

–seclusion

–much beauty

–strenuous is OK, maybe preferred

–bonus: good side trails, especially historic ones.

I’ve looked at 3 AZ trail books, & narrowed my choices to 5: Fossil Springs, West Clear Creek, Secret Canyon, Bell, and Kelsey-Dorsey. (BUT, I’m VERY open to other suggestions.)

I’m an experienced backpacker, with little experience in the West. Last fall, I spent 3 days with a buddy at Phantom Ranch–down North Kaibab, back up Bright Angel. 1st time at G.C. & 1st AZ trip ever.

I understand that some of these 5 are popular, but secluded on weekdays, especially in Oct. True? I’d appreciate any suggestions you have–the more broad and detailed, the better. Thanks so much.

What is a ball park amount of spending money in yen to take for a 9 day trip to Japan?

I am going to take a 9 day trip to Japan in late May of 2010. For just under $3,000USD, airfare from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, hotels, travel between cities (Bus, Bullet Train, etc. between Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Hakone, and Tokyo), breakfast daily and dinner on the last night, a full-time tour guide, walking tours, sightseeing tours, and entrance fees to several attractions (Nijo Castle, Heian Shrine and Garden, the Silver or Gold Pavilion, Lake Hakone cruise, Meiji Shinto Shrine, a Sumida River cruise, and Asakusa Kannon Temple) is all included. Locale includes 1 day in Osaka, 2 days in Kyoto, 1/2 day in Nara, 1 day in Hakone, and 3 days in Tokyo.

With this in mind, first of all, does this seem like a reasonable price for what is included, and second, how much should I expect to bring for meals, admission, souvenirs, etc.? My initial though was around $600 US Dollars. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
