Capitol Reef National Park

Fruita Schoolhouse

Scenic road at Capitol Reef.

Petroglyphs! (look in the middle of the picture for drawings)

We thought the school house was put in a crazy location! It looks like the rocks behind it will hit the school. The scenic road had a few boulders in the road due to the flash flood they had the day before. At the Visitor's Center while the kids were getting their fifth Jr. Ranger Badge they announced the road had been cleared and was now open. Lucky for us! You can see from the picture the dirt still on the road from the day before. The Petroglyphs were really neat! You can see part of them slide off in a rock slide in prior years. It looks like people holding hands.
