Trail Overview
This is an amazing trail (not too technical) that connects from the south end of Capitol Reef NP to the Tantalus Flats trail and comes out by the Lower Bowns reservoir. Most of the trail can be done in 4H, but once or twice it will help to shift her into 4-Lo. Beautiful views and overall a great beginner trail (but very enjoyable by the most seasoned driver as well. Some sections are driven along the actual river bed. One small river crossing at the beginning of the trail (if driving it south, beginning at Capitol Reef), depth will depend on the season, but at the highest, it will be only 3 feet or so. High clearance is required.
