Capitol Reef to Salt Lake City
March 20, 1998
Capitol Reef at the opening of the Grand Wash.

Capitol Reef is not one of those glitzy parks with any popular attraction. It's a lot of fun to play in and is in the middle of everything.

It's called Capitol Reef because there's a rock formation that looks like the US Capitol Building.

We didn't stay long because we were getting a bit tired of the brown thing and wanted to get on with other activities. So that morning we walked along the Grand Wash, failed in our attempt to locate the Butch Cassidy arch, and headed out.



Utah Arch, Arches National Park.

Yoko wanted to do to Arches. She really wanted to go to Arches. So, we went to Arches. Everybody goes to Arches. They were all there.



Arches National Park.

And we arched.

On the way out we decided to take a look at a nearby ghost town off of I70. I guess I expected something out of the movies. What we got to see was a bunch of run down old buildings. Some guy was sitting in front of what used to be a house. I gather he is the ghost.

Drove US6 from I70 to Provo. The Pizza Hut in Price sure hit the spot.
