Green River to St George

Green River to St George

Today was another driving day through gorgeous scenery — particularly the part through the northern part of the Capitol Reef.    Not only is the scenery stunning, but it is constantly changing in nature — red rocks, white rocks, black rocks.  Huge  weathered formations.  The road climbed to 8000 feet and then we would descend to 5000 or so with a 6% decline.

After joining with I-15, we headed south into a much more populated area.  We spent the night at Snow Canyon State Park, a small campground nestled in among high red rock formations.  We enjoyed having electric as the temperature was 107-degrees when we parked.  Air conditioning was much appreciated.
