arrived in torrey mid-afternoon and checked into our torrey trading post cabin
highly recommend staying here

had time to do a couple things in the park
set out on the fremont river trail, passing by gifford house, the amphitheater and campground
cottonwoods were sporting brilliant yellow leaves
the hike goes along the river for about half a mile, then starts to climb up the side of a bluff
good views on the ascent of the fremont river and fruita area
a turn to the south and a more moderate grade to a high point overlooking a canyon
good trail, fun short hike, windy conditions, only a few people
all the other people were carrying around giant cameras in fruita valley
next drove to the goosenecks parking area and hit that trail along with sunset point
good views again, this time down into sulpher creek and of cliffs and domes to the east
nice intro to capitol reef
