If more wide open, the 13. I suspect John Scott could provide some guidance here, as I know he frequently fishes with a 13' rod and it seems like he knows the streams you have mentioned.....
The 13' Ayu would be good on all the streams Brandon and I mentioned, except some short sections of Rainey Creek and parts of the upper reaches of the Little Lost River, and noting that I am not familiar with Canyon Creek.

P.S. Brandon - Don't overlook the North and East Forks of the Big Lost. Also, the Salt River tribs in Idaho - Tincup, Jack Knife, Stump, and Crow creeks - can be interesting, and would be good Tenkara country. Not to mention the Greys River.
The fish are always right.
