| no partners | | this hike was recommended by @azwanderingbear, @azbeaver and @lindaagm
it sounded good and was right on the way to capitol reef
a little chilly so we didn't get going until around 1000
once the sun moved into the canyon, temps were fine
the trail is a mix of sand and bedrock, mostly sand of varying depths
nice geology on both sides of the canyon
always good to hike along flowing water
just a few people out and we were first to the falls, having it to ourselves for a few minutes
quite an impressive first sight rounding a bend
126 feet tall, dropping into a nice swimming hole
one guy took a dip - @johnlp might have, too
spent about 20 minutes having a snack, taking photos and chilling
left when more people started showing up, and crossed paths with quite a few on the return
the destination is great, and the journey wasn't bad
a nice hike between higher elevation gain days and a very pretty area
enjoyed the drive on scenic highway 12 on the way to torrey |
