Bryce Canyon to Capitol Reef Canyon
Die Strasse zwischen den beiden
Parks ist die Nr. 16 und bekannt als Sehenswuerdigkeit. Und so war es
auch - man faehrt um eine Kurve und dann ist der riesige Escalante
Canyon unter einem, durch den man hindurch faehrt meilenweit. Danach
geht es auf ueber 3000m wieder hoch in den Dixie Forest …

Day 4: Bryce Canyon NP to Capitol Reef NP
Day 4 began early as well. No one slept well at all. The temperature during the night dipped very low and everyone's feet were freezing. I never wore so many clothes to bed and was still cold!
Donna and Lindsay told me that the noise I heard during the night was a stampede of mule deer walking all around our camp site. They were both …
Day 4
This morning, we went back into Moab (5minutes away) and got some fuel and Starbucks (Wahoo!). I think the City Market grocery store was an Albertson’s in disguise. It had all the same signs and products, but a different name. The main attraction today was the Arches National Park, which was 5 mins the other way out of Moab. Red Rock towers …
Capitol Reef National Park
This is a top pick! Capitol Reef is a giant wrinkle in the earth's crust and it goes for 100 miles and was formed 65 million years ago. The main campground here is called 'Fruita' and has orchards with cherries, peaches and apples.

Most of the time the campgrounds that are located within the national parks are pretty plain. You get clean bathrooms and water and a concrete slab, but not much else.
Fruita campground in Capitol Reef NP couldn't be more different. Not only is the campground clean, but the area is full of mature, beautiful trees and lots of tidy grass. The sites are spacious and an added bonus is the Gifford House is steps away and is full of homebaked breads and scones, hot coffee, ice cream and gourmet canned goods.
Add the world class hiking and scenery that Capitol Reef has to offer and you move this great campground from 4 stars to 5!!
Downsides? No showers - but the Fremont River is lots of fun instead!

This campground was beautiful and not full which was a surprise. It was only $10 per night. Lots are paved, but no hookups and the park ranger was very crabby. There was a dump station and generators could be used during set hours in the morning and evening. We camped in a 5th wheel.
