I arranged an all day plus private tour with Sleeping Rainbow Adventures. I wanted to tour Cathedral Valley at Sunrise and the Strike Valley Overlook in the late afternoon. I was an idiot, because I had to drive from Knab to Torrey, mostly in the dark. So I arrived at the Capitol Reef Resort at 11:00. Thank goodness, I ordered a meal for breakfast. Allison picked me up at 5:00, so we could get to Cathedral Valley before sunrise. The light was amazing at sunrise, unfortunately, it lasted only twenty minutes. I was able to get some amazing images during that time. Then, I drove Allison crazy, because I wanted to take images of the dried out river beds. We stopped at few. Then, it was off to the gypsum formation where I captured several images of the formation. Then she drove to different locations where I could capture images of Cathedral Valley and the northern portion of the Waterpocket Fold. Then she took me to the Bentonite Hills, where we were the closest to being at Mars. The colors were amazing. Finally, we crossed the Fremont River to begin the second portion of the tour. I was supposed to switch drivers, but I told Allison that I did not have to be at the Strike Valley Overlook after sunset. So, I did not switch drivers, and it was time to travel the Notom Road. We stopped at several locations, so I could capture many images. Finally, we went up the Burr Trail where I was able to capture images on one of the switchbacks. Finally we arrived at the Strike Valley Overlook Trail. We hiked up the trail until we arrived at the overlook. I have been there before, but it was twenty-nine years prior. We spent at least an hour, so I could capture images. This was the first time, I used a digital camera. Finally we climbed down back to the trailhead. Instead of driving over Boulder Mountain, we traced our way back down the Burr Trail and the Notom Road. She told me that one could run into cows over Boulder Mountain. (I felt really foolish taking that road the night before in complete darkness.) We drove back to my hotel. It was a sixteen hour day of amazing photography. Allison was wonderful and patient with my many stops. I highly recommend Sleeping Rainbow Adventures and Allison.
