Once the only access road to Capitol Reef National Park, Capitol Gorge provides a harsh and beautiful stone causeway that opens up into a world of bizarre and varied stone formations, desert washes both narrow and wide, and the types of plants common in the high desert – stunted trees like pinyon pine and Utah juniper, prickly pear cactus, the brilliant orange of globemallows and striking red of desert paintbrush.  And then a sight that is unfathomable in the desert: the delicate, showy blossoms of fruit trees.   The blooming and fruiting trees create a strange and wonderful picture set against the magnificent cliffs and rocks of the high desert.

Take a 4x4 trip through 50 miles of challenging backcountry roads lead to campsites, trailheads, and many natural and cultural features in Canyonlands National Park.

For 12,000 years, people have left a rich record of their experiences in Utah's Capitol Reef National Park. In The Capitol Reef Reader, award-winning author and photographer Stephen Trimble collects the best of this writing—160 years worth of words that capture the spirit of the park and its surrounding landscape in personal narratives, philosophical riffs, and historic and scientific records.

The Capitol Reef Reader is not your typical national park guidebook. No trail, dining, or lodging information. Rather, The Capitol Reef Reader offers an incredible wealth of information in the essays Stephen Trimble has pulled together for this collection. Essays by the likes of Clarence Dutton who traveled the Southwest with Major John Wesley Powell, Ed Abbey, and that literary conservation giant, Wallace Stegner. We talk with Trimble this week about how he pulled together the wonderful essays in this anthology on Capitol Reef National Park. Erika Zambello makes a short stop at the Old Post Office Building in Washington, D.C., and we end the show with a look at two wonderful monuments in Arizona, Wupatki and Sunset Crater Volcano.

Episode #48 Utah National Parks Part 1 Welcome to the Travel Gluten Free Podcast, where you, my friend, listen in on how to lead a gluten-free lifestyle with more fun and ease! Let's start with the basics: what to expect when you come to Utah: crazy weather Super dry climate lots of tourists lots of ice cream sunburn How can you avoid the busiest tourist season What should youbring with you to Utah and what are the national parks you can visit? When you go to national park page at nps.gov you can search for parks by state. When you click on Utah, the site will give you a list of all the national places: monuments, sites and historic trails, recreational sites and parks. Each of these areas are maintained by the government and are part of the national park service. These are all wonderful places to visit, but for this podcast, I'm going to focus just on the national parks. There are 5 national parks in Utah and I've been to all of them. They each are very different, even though they are all in the same state, and some within an hour of each other.  Each have their own rock formation which give them their personality. And, besides Utah, you can only see crazy and unique rock formations similar to these in about a half dozen other places worldwide. This is what makes the parks in Utah to so special. Let's start off in the north. Arches Moab, UT Visit Arches to discover a landscape of contrasting colors, land forms and textures unlike any other in the world. The park has over 2,000 natural stone arches, in addition to hundreds of soaring pinnacles, massive fins and giant balanced rocks. This red-rock wonderland will amaze you with its formations, refresh you with its trails, and inspire you with its sunsets. Canyonlands Moab, UT Canyonlands invites you to explore a wilderness of countless canyons and fantastically formed buttes carved by the Colorado River and its tributaries. Rivers divide the park into four districts: Island in the Sky, The Needles, The Maze, and the rivers themselves. These areas share a primitive desert atmosphere, but each offers different opportunities for sightseeing and adventure. In the South Bryce Canyon Bryce Canyon, UT Hoodoos (irregular columns of rock) exist on every continent, but here is the largest concentration found anywhere on Earth. Situated along a high plateau at the top of the Grand Staircase, the park's high elevations include numerous life communities, fantastic dark skies, and geological wonders that defy description. Zion Springdale, UT Follow the paths where ancient native people and pioneers walked. Gaze up at massive sandstone cliffs of cream, pink, and red that soar into a brilliant blue sky. Experience wilderness in a narrow slot canyon. Zion’s unique array of plants and animals will enchant you as you absorb the rich history of the past and enjoy the excitement of present day adventures. In the middle of Utah Capitol Reef Torrey, UT Located in south-central Utah in the heart of red rock country, Capitol Reef National Park is a hidden treasure filled with cliffs, canyons, domes, and bridges in the Waterpocket Fold, a geologic monocline (a wrinkle on the earth) extending almost 100 miles. Next episode will be part 1 of three where we explore two parks in adventurous detail!

Maroon Bells, Aspen, CO Dale clic para verla grande Hoy regresa Hablando de Tecnología con una variedad de temas típica de nuestros programas. Comenzamos deseándole todo lo mejor a nuestro amigo Julio García Saladín de la República Dominicana quién está atravesando por un quebranto de salud. Julio es uno de esos oyentes asiduos que escuchan, comentan y contribuyen a Hablando de tecnología sea cada vez mejor. También hablamos de la encuesta que celebramos durante pasado mes de abril. En ella comprobamos muchas cosas que ya sabíamos. Hablamos sobre micrófonos, consolas, hospedaje cibernético, entrevistas, entrevistados, intros, outros, anuncios y muchas cosas más. También hablamos del viaje de 10 semanas que hicimos Zory y yo por los Parques Nacionales de los Estados Unidos. En esta ocasión visitamos Great Sand Dunes National Park, Black Canyon of the Gunisson National Park, Mesa Verde National Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Maroon Bells State Park, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, Shoshone Falls State Park, Zion National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Arches National Park (por segunda vez), Canyonlands National Park, Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Dead Horse Point State Park y Cedar Breaks National Monument. En total diez parques nacionales, un monumento nacional, tres parques estatales, el Jardín Botánico de Tulsa y el Zoológico de Oklahoma City. Transitamos un total de 8,400 millas por carretera. La navegante y encargada de transportación y alojamiento fue Zoraida y el piloto fui yo. Para realizar este viaje utilizamos una serie de recursos tecnológicos que discuto en detalle en este capítulo. También hablamos sobre la más reciente incursión de Google en el mundo del podcasting, esta vez mediante su web app para teléfonos Androide y PCs “Google Podcasts”. ¿Hará esto una diferencia en términos de audiencia? Ya veremos. Hablamos también sobre la decisión de la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos que exige que las empresas que vendan productos a través de la Internet se vean obligadas a cobrar los impuestos aplicables en cada estado en el que hagan negocios. Finalmente, hablamos de una noticia que debió haber causado interés a nivel mundial y sólo apareció en el periódico El Pais de España. Se trata de que científicos de ese país han logrado impedir la metástasis en casos de cáncer avanzados. ENLACES: • Disfruta de las fotos que he tomado en los distintos parque nacionales y/o estatales de los Estados Unidos • Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos decide que los comerciante por Internet deben cobrar impuestos aplicables a cada estado • Terapia experimental logra detener la metástasis

This episode was shot as a video, on-site, from Capitol Reef National Park in southern Utah. The topic is the point where you've planned, and planned (and maybe want to plan some more), but you just need to jump!

It's a pledge drive special edition of Access Utah today. My special guest for the hour is former UPR Program Director and Access Utah host Lee Austin. We'll reach into the archives for parts of interviews Lee conducted with writer Gore Vidal and former Utah Poet Laureate Ken Brewer. We'll also hear a portion of a special broadcast on the history of Capitol Reef National Park. We'll talk about the history of Access Utah and the public affairs programs that preceded this program. And we'll invite you to pledge your support to UPR to ensure that Access Utah and all the programming you value continues strong.

Part 5: the historic Burr Trail in all its glory and struggle (info), through Capitol Reef National Park & Grand-Staircase-Escalane National Monument. This spring I rode my bicycle across southern Utah to view the spectacular remote desert landscape and explore seven national parks: Colorado NM, Arches NP, Canyonlands NP, Capitol Reef NP, Grand Staircase-Escalante NM, Bryce Canyon NP and Zion NP. My friend Ross and I left April 30 from Breckenridge, Colorado, and took 3 weeks to ride nearly 1,000 miles / 600 km to Zion National Park in Springdale, Utah — taking in the sights and spending some quality time on the road and in camp, plus a few “rest days” in Moab, Utah.The ride was mostly fantastic — amazing scenic landscapes and no traffic — but came with some challenges: very long and strenuous climbs over mountain passes, temperatures ranging from below freezing to 95F/35C, isolation from people and civilization, long distances between bike shops, the steep dirt/gravel Burr Trail, and long stretches without access to food (and no real supermarkets) or water (I carried over 2 gallons and still had to ask car tourists for water a few times).I talk about the landscapes, people, challenges and more in the summary episode but be sure to check out the mini journals recorded from my tent or along the road. I will post a new episode every 1-2 days so you can follow along in front of your campfire. ROUTE: Colorado, Part 1 | Colorado, Part 2 | Utah

Utah hit the jackpot when it comes to National Parks...Bryce, Zion, Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef...but how can one see them all? Allison from Tips for Family Trips shares her sample itinerary for seeing all the parks in 10 days and her top tips for visiting Utah's National Parks. ON THE PODCAST :30 Kim is in Edmunton 6:10 Allison Laypath from Tips for Family Trips 8:38 Allison's top 5 parks in Utah 9:35 How long to spend in Utah 12:33 One week itinerary in Utah 13:02 Zion National Park 13:40 Bryce National Park 15:27 Capitol Reef National Park 17:27 Arches National Park 18:55 Canyonlands National Park 21:47 Lesser known gems to squeeze in if you have time 25:30 Best time to go to Utah 29:30 Best place to take a family photo 31:15 Allison's favorite travel gear 33:50 App of the week 36:30 Next week -- traveling with allergies ABOUT ALLISON LAYPATH Allison Laypath is the founder and co-editor of the family travel blog Tips for Family Trips at www.tipsforfamilytrips.com.

Follow Tips for Family Trips on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest. PLANNING A TRIP TO UTAH'S NATIONAL PARKS Plan on staying at least 7-10 days if you want to hit all the National Parks (Bryce, Zion, Arches, Canyonlands and Capitol Reef), at least two weeks if you want to hit the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley Salt Lake City is the main airport hub to fly in and out of, but you can also fly out of St. George or Moab There is a 5-6 hour drive between the three triangle corners of Salt Lake City, Moab and St. George  You could do Arches and Canyonlands OR Zion and Bryce on individual weekends For a one week itinerary, start in Salt Lake City and spend the first day driving. Day 2: Zion National Park Day 3: Bryce National Park (can do it in a ½ day) Day 4: Capitol Reef National Park (very diverse and not as crowded) Day 5: Arches National Park (the hike to the delicate arch is short but uphill and crowded so going off season is best) Day 6: Canyonlands National Park -- this park is in three different sections and the Island in the Sky district is perfect for families, especially the White Rim Overlook Day 7: Drive back to Salt Lake City If you are just spending one day per park, you will just see the highlights and do one bigger hike Stargazing tourism is popular in Bryce and Capitol Reef National Parks Some lesser-known gems include Goblin Valley State Park, Snow Canyon State Park, Best Friends Animal Sanctuary Zion and Arches can get very crowded during the high season and it is best to go early. Those parks also get over 100 degrees in the late spring and summer January and February are great times to go to Canyonlands because they are dry and in the 40s during that time Fall break in Utah is in October on a Thursday and Friday so the parks will be very busy during those days Spring break is usually the last week of March or first week of April Parks are crowded from April - August If you want to camp inside the park, you should book at least a few months in advance BEST PLACE TO TAKE FAMILY PHOTO The most iconic spot is at the end of the trail in Arches National Park that overlooks the Delicate Arch. Another great spot would be Bryce Canyon at sunrise. FAVORITE TRAVEL GEAR When traveling in the National Parks, Allison uses a comfortable hiking boot and the EcoVessel water bottle. Allison also likes Dansko walking shoes for her other vacations. APP OF THE WEEK  Kim and Tamara both rely on Waze to navigate around traffic jams and other obstacles along the route.

The Adventures of Salt and Soap at Grand Canyon is the true story of two puppies who wandered into the Canyon and maneuvered their way into some great escapades--multiple rim-to-river hikes, a white-water rafting trip, and even a helicopter ride-all while ultimately snuggling their ways into park rangers’ hearts. The author of this charming book for children, interpretive ranger Lori Rome, adopted this pair of adventurers after meeting them at the bottom of the Canyon at Phantom Ranch, the historic oasis on the north side of the Colorado River that’s tucked in right next to Bright Angel Creek. She took Salt and Soap in as "lost and found items" but, with Lori, the intrepid duo found a home. And home for all of them is now Capitol Reef National Park in south-central Utah where they’ve been joined by a third dog (another stray, Mo, whose proper name is Morri, after the Morrison rock formation near where he was found). In this episode, Donna chats with Lori about Salt, Soap and their buddy Morris. Lori gives us entrée to her life as a ranger in parks from Alaska to Florida, shares stories about pets and wildlife in the parks, and details her exciting work with mountain lions at Capitol Reef. Questions or Comments? Send them to: donna@petliferadio.com. More details on this episode MP3 Podcast - The Adventures of Salt, Soap and Lori Rome on Pet Life Radio.
