Capitol Reef Gorge Trail

Once upon a time this was Utah state road UT24 before it got rerouted. Graffiti on the canyon walls date back to the late 1800's when horse drawn wagons and later early cars passed this way on the east to west route through this area. But the high likelihood of flash floods and narrow walls precipitated a new route! Tough life being a pioneer!
