In this episode of the Unscaled Travel Show, Jeremy and Amy head to Capitol Reef National Park for a first-timer’s guide to one of Utah’s most underrated national parks.

From scenic drives and ancient petroglyphs to the famous pies at Fruita’s Gifford House, they break down the best stops, hikes, travel tips, stargazing, wildlife, and what first-time visitors actually need to know before exploring Capitol Reef.

Plus: the strange story behind the park’s name, the massive geologic “wrinkle” known as the Waterpocket Fold, and ::gulp:: a few reasons why you might consider skipping this park.
