Capitol Reef - Frying Pan Trail - Utah

Some days it seems like you can point the camera in any direction and get a good picture. This day was one of those days and what an incredible place to visit. This view toward Thousand Lake Mountain of Capitol Reef can be seen from the top of the Frying Pan Trail. You get here by climbing up the Cohab Canyon Trail to the junction and then heading up the mesa to the top. There is a reason they call this the Frying Pan Trail, and it's not because some old prospector left his frying pan here. If we were using real film, I would worry that the film would be no good from heat exposure. This would be a great place for a sunset or early morning picture, but I didn't like the idea of climbing down in the dark, and I couldn't imagine getting up early enough to be here at sunrise.
