Capitol Reef National Park has the largest orchards in the National Park System, and you can pick and eat the fruit for free! We didn’t, but you can! The 8-mile scenic drive within the park was beautiful, as was the drive into the park via I-24. Since Beau had to work that day we arrived late in the day and the sun was already beginning to set as we were leaving the park. Just outside the park we stopped for gas and found some random farm animals, one of whom was not very happy that I didn’t bring it food 🐐 We still had a bit further to drive to get to our campsite for the weekend at Otter Creek State Park, so we didn’t get to do any of the hikes in Capitol Reef this time around, but maybe we’ll come back here someday as there’s obviously a lot more to see and do here!
