Sport Climbing Areas for a University Climbing Club

I am taking over my university climbing club this season and we are in the process of planning some road trips to sport climbing areas. I have got a few ideas but I thought I'd throw out the question to see if anyone has a prime area I haven't considered.

Here are the requirements for what we are looking at:

1. Needs to have a range of route difficulties.. Most people in the club are still working up to 5.10 leading so a range of 5.5 to upper 5.10s would be awesome.

2. A few different areas need to be relatively close together so we can spread out as to not mob a wall but still remain within a few miles of one another.

3. Under 10ish hours away from the Ogden UT area (about 45 min North of SLC).

I am aware of the Utah sport climbing destinations such as Maple, St. George, etc.

It would be awesome to figure out an area we can travel to in a neighboring state for a unique trip that some people haven't experienced.

Places I have considered....

Red Rock (previously visited before)
Owens River Gorge.... any thoughts?

Any ideas would be great!

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
