Day 33 Saturday October 5, 2013

Today we drove from Torrey, UT to Moab, UT through the Capital Reefs NP and visited Goblin Valley State Park.
The route to Moab took us initially along Hwy 24 which goes through Capital Reefs NP. Fortunately the pullouts along this highway were open and so we were able to stop at all the sites along the highway. We did see some petroglyphs from the Freemont Indians about 1300 years old.

Goblin Valley State Park was full of amazing rock formations that you could walk around.
