Hickman Natural Bridge
November 6, 2022 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 6 °C
Obwohl heute Sonntag ist, waren wir fast allein unterwegs. Wie wäre es sonst möglich, daß wir hier "Bighorn Sheeves" in den Bergen beobachten können?🤔🤭😊

Und dann erreichten wir den "Hickman Natural Bridge". Na ja, er ist ja ganz schön. Aber hatten wir in den vergangenen Tagen nicht beeindruckendere Natural Bridges gesehen? Oder sind wir inzwischen schon zu verwöhnt?🤔🥴Read more

November 5, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 6 °C
Die Wanderungen "Little Wild Horse Canyon & Bell Canyon Trailhead" sind absolut spektakulär! Schon bald steigen wir in den Slot ein. Ein Slot, der sich so sehr verengt, daß figürlich normale Menschen wie wir irgendwann nicht mehr durchkommen. Blöder Canyon🥴🤭😊Read more

Capitol Reef NP

Als wir im Januar im "Capitol Reef NP" waren, war alles verschneit. Eine Wanderung war nicht möglich. Heute ist der 40m lange Felsbogen "Hickman Natural Bridge" unser Ziel. Eine schöne, kurzweilige Wanderung.Read more

Day12
Fahrt nach Capitol Reef
September 13, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Am frühen Nachmittag ging es noch nach Capitol Reef. Dort wollten wir versuchen auf dem Fruita Campground noch einen Platz zu bekommen. Da wir aber erst am Nachmittag ankamen machten wir uns nicht viel Hoffnung.
Der Campground ist sehr schön gelegen. Leider haben wir aber wie befürchtet keinen Platz mehr bekommen. Alles voll.

Ich hatte auf der Fahrt bereits Alternativen rausgesucht. Auf den letzten Kilometern fiel uns dann aber noch ein etwas abgelegener Campingparkplatz auf. Von diesem hatte man (weil er etwas höher gelegen war) einen tollen Blick auf die Landschaft. Dort fuhren wir hin und haben gleich einen ganz tollen Platz ergattert.

Heute trieb es uns zum Burger essen. Da wir recht geschlaucht von den letzten Tagen waren (vor allem ich), wollten wir nichts kochen.
Wir fanden im kleinen Örtchen "Torrey" ein gutes Restaurant in dem wir einkehrten.
Wir planten noch etwas unsere weitere Route und machten uns danach zu unserem Campingparkplatz auf.
Dort sammelten wir noch ein bisschen Holz für ein kleines Feuer und genossen den Sonnenuntergang.Read more

Capitol Reef
September 15, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Ich glaube ich schreibe zu viel 🙈😂

Ein kleiner Eindruck vom Trail zur Hickman Bridge, der tollen Lichtstimmung und von unserem heutigen Hotel direkt am Capitol Reef muss aber unbedingt noch in unseren Blog 😁

Wir haben ein super tolles Zimmer mit atemberaubenden Ausblick auf die roten Felsen.

Wenn man hier im Capitol Reef Resort mindestens zwei Nächte bleibt könnte man auch ein Tipi oder einen Planwagen zum Übernachten buchen.
Die Ausstattung ist der Hammer.Read more

Day3
Another day in Capitol Reef
October 14, 2018 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 1 °C
Our second day in Capitol Reef was another couple exhilarating hikes that gave ample opportunity to contemplate our total irrelevance to the grand scheme of the universe. First hike of the morning was to Hickman’s Bridge, not too far but with a fair amount of elevation. We were lucky to have left the trailhead early, because on the way down we ran into lots of people heading up to that arch.

Back in the parking lot, Joe kindly agreed to let me go back up and take another spur, to a place called Rim Overlook. More elevation gain, and great views. At the top, I met a couple from northern Minnesota. The guy could not contain himself — looking over the vast expanse, he started in on how the hell could Trump think it is a good idea to open this land up to mining????!!!

After lunch, more walking, this time through a canyon to a place below a rock called Cathedral Rock. The views are just incredible around every turn.

There are some petroglyphs from ancient tribes named the Fremont people because they had no name of self-identification, apparently. Some petroglyphs, some remains of deerskin mocasins, waterproof reed baskets, but not much else. The drawings on the walls that we saw are from around 1000 AD, which was roaring Romanesque time in Spain!Read more

Day4
Last Day in Capitol Reef
October 15, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 2 °C
We finished out our visit to Capitol Reef with a couple of hikes and a saunter. First thing in the morning, Joe and I hiked the Chimney Rock Loop. Good elevation, great views, both of the chimney rock and the canyon it borders. Then once again my cooperative husband stayed down in a parking lot at the Cassidy Arch trailhead, and I went up to a pretty awesome site. A bit of scrambling at the end, nothing technical, but just terrific views. And thanks to the encouragement of a couple from upstate New York, I dared to walk out on the top of the arch itself, and have pictures to prove it.

For our last park visit, we walked a few miles around a place named Goosenecks, with views of yet another canyon, and its Sunset Point, with probably the most complex and prettiest view of the whole park — all sorts of geology and canyons, pine trees, snow covered mountains in the back, just beautiful.

Since we had finished our walking by 4:15, I decided we would probably have time to make it to Bicknell, about 15 miles away, to a pharmacy to pick up some medication Joe left at home. It had taken a while to get our pharmacy in touch with the Wayne County Health Center Pharmacy, but luckily it all worked out. The people were great, and when I picked up the medicine, I asked the pharmacist about the center. Is it a public health center? Yes, he said, it serves people county-wide. How is it funded? By the state of Utah, he said. But, he said, it it NOT a government clinic. Oh well.

Tip of the day. Though the air is so dry it will crack the inside of your nose, here is one bit of advice. Do not leave the hot shower on for a while to add moisture to your room, or the fire alarms will go on. OOPS!!!Read more

Day2
In Capitol Reef National Park
October 13, 2018 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 9 °C
Today we left Escalante and headed to Torrey, Utah, enjoying the small group of marathon runners going between Boulder and Escalante in the Escalante marathon. I cannot imagine running up and down those hills, but everyone was smiling! We learned that Boulder Utah actually has two very well regarded restaurants, but we missed them. One of them, Hell’s Backbone Grill, gets written up all the time, we heard.

The drive further on to Torrey, the closest town to Capitol Reef, went through lots of aspen groves. Some still had beautiful yellow leaves, but most had dropped their leaves. I never thought of considering autumn colors as a factor in a trip to Utah! We had great views of the Henry mountains and learned we were traveling through the last part of the continental US to be mapped and charted.

We got to Capitol Reef park early and decided to do a hike to Cohab Canyon. Not as long as others we’ve done (3.5 miles), but the elevation was a bit harder for Joe. It took us up to a canyon with crazy rock formations all along. Good hike!

We are staying in a “resort” near the park, with a much better elliptical than our first place, and a nice view. Heading into town to Café Diablo. And tomorrow’s high is supposed to be about 40, with night temps dropping into the (gasp) 20s! I was planning on 60s weather.Read more
