Capital Reef Utah, April 24-25

It's the end of the Canyon Lands trip and Capital Reef has been as surprising and wonderful as the rest.  Finally got some sun today and went out camera in hand, thinking in black and white.  I think John Muir summed it up nicely when he said:  "Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity; and that mountain parks are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life".
