Capitol Reef National Park

Another wonderful national park is Capital Reef! We can't believe the amazing geological formations in Utah. We camped in the National Park, which was located in Fruita, surrounded by orchards where Mormons had settled in the early 1900's. We could even have picked fruit, if it had been in season--unfortunately, we were a little early. But the view from our campsite was of amazing rock formations. We were constantly amazed with the rocks -- truly remarkable, with their millions of years of formation. We hiked in several canyons, seeing unbelievable geological wonders.
