We only had 24 hours to spend at Capitol Reef National Park (our 35th National Park! Woo! 🎉) and while we originally thought that would be enough, we quickly learned that this park deserves so much more time. But we didn't let our limited time stop us from squeezing in as much as humanly possible into our 24 hours, including multiple hikes, historical sights, delicious treats, and more!

Cannot wait to get out here someday...it definitely seems underrated in terms of the Big 5...probably most likely b/c it's a bit "out of the way". The views just look amazing. And double dipping on pie...classic.

@petem6846 Год назад

Hi Guys, another great video!! @ 8:31, Adam said, "This place is underrated!" It certainly is but your hikes to different places and the scenery help demonstrate what's available. My wife and I visited a couple decades ago and while we did some hiking, it wasn't strenuous. We still enjoyed the park but didn't see some of the things you saw. We stayed overnight (we "camp" at hotels) two nights so we had a full day+ and came to your same conclusion--the park deserves multiple days. Thanks as always for showing the wonderful scenery you see from your fantastic hikes!

A & K, your comment about Pioneer Register reminded me that you would probably enjoy the Oregon Trail Ruts and Register Cliff at Guernsey, Wyoming. West of there some distance is Independence Rock, and then the South Pass, where the Oregon trail crested the continental divide.

Merin Smith Place/Orchard is my Grandpa & Grandmother's place that you show in your video. Our family loves spending lots of time in Fruita due to the beauty and family history there. My grandmother Cora Oyler went to school in the cute little Fruita school house. Grandma's parents raised her in Fruita, her father Tine Oyler is known for managing the fruit orchards. Grandma was the longest resident of Fruita before she and other families were kicked out when the national park was created. The paved highway was built over where her house once stood. I enjoyed your video, glad you got to enjoy our little slice of heaven called Capitol Reef. 💕🙂💕

Capital Reef is definitely under-rated. We were there in October, 2019. We did all the the hikes you did except that we didn't go to Navajo Knobs. Our favorite hike was Hickman Bridge & the Rim Overlook. We spent at least an hour eating lunch and enjoying the view at the overlook. Then we went and had that great apple pie at the Gifford house. It's a great park - one of our favorites! Thanks for the great video of the park.

Super enjoyed this video. It was really nice to see Capitol Reef get some love. Crazy that you only scratched the surface too but what you did show was beautiful. I agree that ‘underrated’ is great term for this park. It seems to always be listed last in the Mighty 5 rankings but you showed that it deserves more attention. I went here as a young teenager and don’t remember a thing from this park. Maybe some brief fragments of the Fruita Orchard but that is it. Your video has me excited for a return trip whenever that may occur. I am planning to hit up Utah for a limited time next year as part of our vacation. I think it is only going to be Arches and Bryce Canyon, though. Navajo Knobs trail was spectacular. Added that to my ever-growing AllTrails list.

@AdventuresofAplusK 2 года назад

It’s sooo underrated! I think we had the most fun here this time around (minus the needles area of canyonlands) because it was less busy and just such a surprise! And you can’t beat pie at a national park!

@debrabalawajder2617 3 года назад

Watching your video reminded me why I love that park so much; it's at the top of my "love" list along with Needles District of Canyonlands. We had always visited in October and there are not that many tourists so you feel like you have the park to yourself. When we were there 2 years ago, however in April, we drove to Capital Gorge and I hated seeing all the cars in the parking lot but we had already done the gorge hike and were doing the Golden Throne hike which started in that area, too. We did Hickman Arch in the snow quite a few years back during the first week of November. The park was gorgeous with the snow on the red rocks! And I laughed at your comment about the "tree" on Cassidy Arch because, guess what, we did rappel down from there and then continued with the guide through the canyon with additional rappels. My husband asked the guide about the tree being safe to rappel from and he said: "5 and alive"; if it's 5 inches in diameter and alive, it's safe! lol

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

We LOVED the Needles! Cannot wait to share a video from there soon-ish! We will say, Capitol Reef was busier than we thought it would be, especially that Capitol Gorge area...yikes, but thankfully we did get to have a lot of solitude too! Snow would be amazing though! And 5 and alive is hilarious, you're much braver than us!

@AdventuresofAplusK 2 года назад

Thank you so much Jim, that means a lot! Definitely get the pie...it's sooo good! (just go early before they sell out)

Thanks to your advice, I bought the Strawberry Rhubarb and Apple Pie!! Oh my!! It was so good!! Toured the area last week!

@AdventuresofAplusK 2 года назад

Woo! So happy you enjoyed the pie!!

@suzanneaydelotte801 3 года назад

I loved this vlog…the endless views. Your shadow waving was amazing and reminded me just how looooong your legs are!!!😂 Those pies looked so amazingly delicious…you could have shipped one back to me!😜 And you know how much I loved seeing my Konie ❤️🐶!

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

Hahahah lately our long shadow legs make me laugh! And I guess we will just have to go back to get you a pie 😉😉

Capital Reef is like your own personal park, very few people, lots to explore and pie.

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

It was great! A few areas were busy, but we had a lot of solitude too!

@jjames05 Год назад

I live just outside of capitol reef. great review of our area. not to mention...PIE!!!

Thanks and thanks for watching!

Another great video. Definitely on my list of places to visit. BTW I think your van buildout design is the best one in youtube land.☺️

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

Thank you so much for the kind words about the video and the van! We are still super happy with our van layout!

@pherylihy58 3 года назад

Awesome vid. I'm heading there with the fiancée in Sept. Thanks for the pie scouting!

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

Eat ALL of the pies for us! 🥧🙌🏼

Hello Adventurers😊😊, Capital Reef National Park doesn't get the love that it should, probably because of the remoteness of the area, but this place is absolutely AMAZING!! Those pies looked sooooo GOOD! Great video👍👍👍!

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

It is SO worth the trek to get there! We loved it so much!

@pedrox96 Год назад

Capitol Reef is such an unique NP, and Fruita Campground is a place of dreams. I hope I can visit some day and eat some of these delicious pies. This is not to mention the hikes and the views, just WOW! Totally UNDERRATED!

@AdventuresofAplusK Год назад

We totally agree! That was one of the most surprising parks to us! Love it!

@oliverjh1281 3 года назад

As soon as I saw strawberry and rhubarb on the menu I thought that’s the one for me lol excellent video 👏👏👏

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

It was SO dang good!!!

@humuz27 3 года назад

Absolutely loving your Utah series! You motivate me to hop on the elliptical and exercise so I can watch your videos! Also, making a bucket list, hoping to visit Utah again soon. Looking forward to your adventures in Moab. Have you made it to Canyonlands yet??? If not, I highly recommend the White Rim Trail and Upheaval Dome hikes. The end of White Rim Trail has probably the best panoramic view I've ever experienced! We were there last summer and it was so breathtaking! Also ❤ that you guys have 🌮 and 🍦 so much.. you're my kind of people!

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

We are so glad you’re enjoying them! And we did make it to Canyonlands and did both of those! So beautiful 😍😍

@WhenAdventureKnox 3 года назад

Whoa, as if you guys have visited 35 National Parks already!!! This video brought back so many good memories. I think because I was in Capitol Reef much more recently than Bryce, this video got me a little emotional, excited to see it again, sad that I have no idea when I can get back out stateside! I loooved the music selection in this video too, brings back memories of previous videos of yours but couldn't put my fingers on which ones - so happy and upbeat though! 🥳 The views from Navajo Knobs were all kinds of amazing. No the wonder why you were so knackered, you guys got up so high! Your experience of Cassidy Arch was very different to ours. The colour on the rocks due to sunrise was all kinds of beautiful. They'd sold out of pies when we made it to the Gifford Homestead. Listening to your description was difficult! 🤦‍♀️😔... then you went and bought a second one! The apple pie looked more like an Apple crumble. Is that something you guys have over in the US? Very jealous that you also got to go into the school house - it was closed when we visited! You guys really did cram tonnes into your visit. Definitely did more than us and we had a day and a half, no the wonder why you were zonked by the end. 25:22 🤣 not gonna say any more about that! 🤣🤣

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

Your videos gave us so many ideas of things to do, so a BIG thank you! It was fun to walk in your footsteps there (and at Arches and Canyonlands...we have talked about you tons the last few weeks!). So bummed you didn't get pie though, you'll just have to come back 😉 The top definitely reminded us of an apple crumble! Oh my gosh I was so embarrassed. There was a guy behind us witnessing the whole thing and somehow Adam did not care (usually people seeing us film makes us both MEGA nervous and awkward) 😂

@dennisstewart5660 3 года назад

I enjoy your comments and the views, I am from Utah and have not seen a lot of the things you have filmed

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

We are so happy we can show you some places in your home state!

@darlenestout7548 3 года назад

Yum I love apple pie. No wonder you guys can eat like you do as much hiking as you do.

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

We are very active! The apple pie was the best!

@bobculhane4746 2 года назад

Great 👍 job making it to the top, those views were amazing 👏 I was tired 😫 just watching you guys climbing that elevation. Not sure if I can make that one to the top this spring but want to attempt the rim overlook for sure .

@AdventuresofAplusK 2 года назад

The rim overlook is definitely worth it and a great choice if you can’t go the entire way!

@Carolann_237 3 года назад

We loved CRNP too. We only allotted a 24 hour stop also. We hiked both the wash trails and Hickman bridge and of course ate way too much pie and cinnamon rolls.

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

That's the only way to do it! We hear those cinnamon rolls are super good, but they were long gone...even when we got there pretty early!

@jamessheets7267 3 года назад

Impressive sites y'all are visiting

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

It has been pretty dang incredible!

@imalobot08 3 года назад

Capitol Reef is so underrated! I loved the Chimney Rock trail. That one had the best views in my opinion.

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

We will have to try it next time!

@Tawnieandwayne 3 года назад

Looks incredible there! It sucks you only had 24 hours to enjoy it. Safe travels!! 🤗

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

That darn thing called work always ruining the fun 😂 But super happy we got to visit!

@Nerdyworx 3 года назад

Great video! I'm bringing my wife and kids out west for a 2 week trip and we are making a half-way pitstop in Capitol Reef on Monday 6/14 while on our way from Moab to Bryce. I have a feeling things are going to be quite busy at the National Parks this summer, but hopefully not too busy that we can take advantage of cherry picking!

@AdventuresofAplusK 3 года назад

The parks are definitely pretty busy, even during our visits in March and April, but if you start early, you should get a bit of solitude! Enjoy cherry picking, that sounds super fun!

@stntylr101 Год назад

I'm thinking about my wife and I taking a vacation next year going from our home near Killeen to the Grand Canyon then Bryce Canyon passing through Capitol Reef. Looks like amazing scenery.

@AdventuresofAplusK Год назад

Do it! Check out our website where we have guides and itineraries for those parks. They are much more detailed and helpful for planning than our videos where we can only talk about and show so much. Thanks for watching!
