Capitol Reef National Park, who knew?

So on our drive to Arches National Park, we found ourselves driving through this park just by the entrance. We had never even heard of it before, but it was time for bed, so we pulled into the Visitor's Center and went to sleep. It was so cool to wake up in the morning and see all the big mountain things around us. We decided to do the Cassidy Arch trail, which was awesome. Up the side of these mountains...this is one of the views from along the trail. Here's the view at the end...amazing right?
Here's my hero sitting on the edge, as always. It was a true form of worship to look out over this beauty and think of God's creativity and kindness to allow us to enjoy it!
Here's Cassidy's Arch. Tales say Butch Cassidy used to hide in here when he was a notorious outlaw of the west. If you look closely you will see me on top of the arch trying to do a hand-stand. not quite successful, but good effort.
Just another view along the trail.
We finally saw some wildlife...here's a bighorn sheep we saw grazing on the trail. It scampered away a bit when we came closer. I was glad it didn't use it's big horns on me.
