Voted 10/10 | Great page Aaron! Puts a lot of pressure on people like me (I need to put together a bunch of these area pages and you've set the bar WAAAAY high :) Good to see you "on the other side" of the SP revolution ;) | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Radek. Yeah, "the other side" has been interesting, challenging and time consuming. The new SP is great though, and I think folks will warm up to it oncethey've affordedthemselves an opportunity to really get to know and master it. There's more to come with Capitol Reef but on a very low profile. There's definitely some climbing challenges you and your better half would enjoy at Capitol Reef, and plenty of first ascent opportunities as well. Thanks for the comment! | |

| RyanS | Wow! | |
Voted 10/10 | I'm ashamed I'm so ignorant of Utah. Never heard of this NP until just now. Glorious page, Aaron! | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Ryan. Glad you liked it and it enlightened you. Sounds like it's time for you and Erin to get to Utah...once you've escaped PA. You'll love the Reef! | |

| tonyo | Great! | |
Voted 10/10 | Great page, Aaron. Capitol Reef is one of my favorites - in fact, I bought land in Torrey a couple of years back and can't wait to retire! | |

| Dean | Utah is amazing | |
Voted 10/10 | and you've helped to point that out by this page. Superb effort and it might open the eyes of many who have no clue about the treasures hidden away in Utah. I had a chance to travel this area the past summer and reveled in the diversity of Utah. I'll be making more trips back down there (although I do love the northwest, Utah just gets in your blood). | |

| Aaron Johnson | Re: Utah is amazing | |
Hasn't voted | Dean-That is so true that Utah does get into your blood. I am enamored with it and I have claimed it is better for hiking than Colorado. My SP Rockies compadres call me a traitor for that opinion, but they just don't know better, which I'm sure you can attest to. Thanks for taking the time to comment. The Capitol Reef Project will keep you busy for some time if you check it all out. | |

Hasn't voted | Shhh Aaron, not so loud... "I am enamored with it and I have claimed it is better for hiking than Colorado. My SP Rockies compadres call me a traitor for that opinion, but they just don't know better, which I'm sure you can attest to." I've heard that the only reason my house hasn't been egged yet, or worse, for claiming the same thing, is because I live clear out here in Craig, and no one wants to make the drive. Better keep it under raps. | |

| Dean | Re: Utah is amazing | |
Voted 10/10 | Oops, please change my name Aaron, I'm far from dead ; ) I'm considered to be a traitor as well since I'm from the northwest. I have a few pics to add from the southern entry and they make my mouth water for a return visit. I'd also like to explore all of the Henry mountains at some time. Scott, I'll do my best to keep it a secret : ) My northwest friends will never leave the rain (except for RPC and Shirley) | |

Hasn't voted | Okay Dead-er-Dean-sorry. It's done! We traitors may need to do an SP gathering in Utah's spectacular desert! | |

| Nelson | Capital Page! | |
Voted 10/10 | This is a fantastic Aaron. Jude and I spent a most enjoyable week in Capitol several years ago, and this page brought back the good memories, and thoughts for future trips. Utah rocks! | |

| gimpilator | Utah | |
Voted 10/10 | I can see it's already been said but I must repeat. Nice Job! I can see you've put a lot of into this page. I love Utah but I must admit I've never heard of this place. I'll have to visit it next time I'm in the area. Thanks for the information. | |

| gjagiels | Favorite National Park | |
Voted 10/10 | You really did an excellent job on this one! Out of the many National Parks I've visited this is my favorite. I love Capitol Reef, primarily because it is almost unknown therefore no hoards of tourists. And also, it has so much diversity in terrain and sites to see that you'll won't get tired of it. Awesome work!!! :-) | |

| Aaron Johnson | Re: Favorite National Park | |
Hasn't voted | Yes! gjagiels- Thanks for the nice comments. Capitol Reef is certainly a favorite of mine as well, and for the very same reasons. If you haven't already, check out the attached pages. Thanks for visiting the page on SP. | |

| seanpeckham | Nice update! | |
Voted 10/10 | Wish I could bump up my vote, but it was already 10. Great photo selection and arrangement! | |

| garchov | One State if only | |
Voted 10/10 | Great job Aaron! Northern Arizona and Southern Utah should be one state if only political boundaries did not influence! The geography is so similar from Sedona up the staircase to Bryce! Great job! Gary | |
