Capital Reef National Park - Mile 3587 - Route 89 - Mile 1145

We started our day at Capital Reef. More very beautiful sights, but different from any we have seen thus far. It was formed 65 million years ago and stretches for 100 miles across south-central Utah. We took more pictures today than we've taken in a single day so far on our trip. It was hard to choose just a few to show you.

These spires are common in the park. Many

seem to look like animals or faces.


This mass is called "The Castle".

The area has a desert feel and there are some

plants like cactus. There was also an orchard

in the park with apple, cherry and peach trees.

Yes, we stopped for pie and ice cream.

Signing off from Capital Reef.
