Whewwwww-hooooooo!! What a great couple of days!! So much adventuring and stories to tell. For a complete write up, visit our website. Bea and I took the Vanagon and traveled south to Capital Reef and then to Little Wild Horse Canyon. First, Capital Reef.... We chose not to start in Goblin Valley area due to weather concerns and headed a little further south. We took a long, 9 mile hike through Cohab Canyon, the Frying Pan and to Cassidy Arch. The weather was grey and threatening the whole day with spots of sunshine here and there, just to keep us going. Unfortunately, as we got to the top of the hike, that would be a solid rocky peak that ends on top of Cassidy Arch - and the sky turned really ugly. It has been raining on and off and now is currently raining - we had some spots of hail along the way as well - and when we got onto the solid rock - BANG! A huge crack of thunder! Well, I was outta there! I took one quick photo of the arch and we, wisely, retreated. No lightning, but I wasnt going to sit there and wait for it!! So, back we went, 4.5 more miles to get out. But what an amazing, gorgeous hike it was!!!
