Family Reunion: Capitol Reef

The main highway goes through part of Capitol Reef National Park so it's visited by many on their way to Canyonlands and Arches National Parks. I've been a big fan of the area, having visited Canyonlands and Arches three times, so I enjoyed the rock formations of the park.

As the pioneers would pass through this canyon they would write their names on the walls, hence this place is called Pioneer Registry, It was neat to see all the old names with the dates and think about how neat it is that their names have been preserved all these many years as their legacy.

We saw a lot of wildlife in the park and I'll post those next.
