    Russ I've recently discovered your channel, and want you to know how much your beautiful videos and calming voice have helped me during these stressful times. I'm an RN and my work responsibilities have been affecting me greatly, both mentally and physically, to the point where I was even having difficulty sleeping. But my husband and I watch your videos every night, and I'm able to sleep now thanks in no small part to your videos. So thank you, and stay safe out there.

    When I drove through Capital Reef Nat. Park in September 1995, as I left the east side, the landscape changed from lush green grass, trees, and the red rock, to a baron gray landscape, which got me to think about the moon landing in 1969. I thought "aha" they filmed it here! Then I followed my brother on up Hwy 24 a few miles before reaching I 70 to a place we set up camp under Temple Mt. to ride dirt bikes in the San Raphael range.

    I camped in my tent at the campground adjacent to the visitor centre here September 1997. Did several hikes, the most memorable being the Navajo Knobs trail, four and a half miles each way ! Also visited the old schoolhouse and picked apples in the orchards in Fruita. This was settled many years ago by Mormons. An oldtimer Englishman from Shropshire reliving some past adventures. Utah is my favourite State, so much to offer free spirits. This was Fremont first nation country.

    If you have time it's worth returning to drive past the Capitol Reef Visitor Center then along the scenic route that takes you to the Capitol Reef rocks themselves. I think it's OK for your van and narrow RVs but you'd have to check. The gorges are gorgeous that you drive through - a bit narrow and many wild goats to see

    Suggestion. If ever in Capital Reef again, jump on Caineville Wash Road, off Hwy 24 just before entering the park if coming from Hanksville. Decent gravel road and it heads up to Hartnet road to allow you to circle back to Hwy 24 further west. I always did it in a Hummer, but know many who have done it in PU trucks and even a Subaru. Nothing tricky, but believe me, it will floor you with the beauty. And there is always the Pyramids to the Moon and Sun. I might have to subscribe to keep my memories of UT alive. Other than looking at a million photos taken with my Nikons.
