Capitol Reef National Park

I was quite taken by the size and colorful red sandstone of Capitol Reef National Park. Its scale reminded me of Zion NP, but with its own unique characteristics. We decided to stay at the Rock Rim Inn due to a pending storm and my sinus condition. Encountering some wet campers drying out gear the following day reaffirmed our decision. Major activities for me include hikes to Hickman Bridge and Cohab Canyon. Geno and Jay decided on the more strenuous hike to the Rim Overlook in lieu of Cohab Canyon.
