Capitol Reef

After another attempt at fishing this morning, we packed up and made our way to Capitol Reef National Park.  Discovered a strenuous yet fun trail to hike called Cassidy’s Arch, named after Butch Cassidy, for legend has it he used to hide out around those parts.  Great 3.5 mile round trip hike, climbing 1000 ft in elevation.  Afterwards, we enjoyed a cold Utah beer while we mapped out our next destination.  After several plan changes, we decided to stop for the night at Green River campground where we can charge up, refill our water supply, shower, and use the dump station before heading to Moab and Arches National Park!

    So beautiful out West! Never had the opportunity to see any of those parks…How far West are you going?

    • Hurricane, Utah was as far west as we went so far. We are now heading towards Denver for a flight back to Florida around memorial day. Then return and continue the road trip for another couple months, likely heading up into Wyoming, Montana, Idaho then back around towards Chicago and back into Florida.
