Day 4... Part Dos...

After finding an amazing well equipped gas station/ mini-mart (GPS 37 53'57.07"N, 111 26'19.07"W ) in Boulder, we were off down "Long Canyon" and onto the "Burr Trail"... both simple 2WD dirt or asphalt roads with some amazing views along the way.

Entering "Long Canyon":


Slot just off the road:


Random view:


After exiting "Long Canyon" and some amazing views, you enter "Capitol Reef Park" and are simply blown away as you come across the top of a rise. This mangled pano doesn't do the scenery justice.

Best view you'll probably ever see from a 2WD dirt road:


The "Capitol Reef" area is truly amazing. Definitely plan to go back for some more exploring. Found a cool place to camp with a natural arch (more like a window) in the background. Many coyote sang us to sleep that night. Well... the dog didn't sleep much... she wanted to go outside and play with the other "dogs"

Can you see the arch?:


A few artsy pics:


What tales trees could tell...:


On to the final day. Bonus ferry footage included.
