Heather writes, "We've had 2 very friendly dogs show up at our house in the Rocky Hill/Pelham Branch area. They don't have any collars or tags but seem to be well taken care of so I'm sure someone is missing them. Please call me if they are yours or if you know whose they might be." --Heather Grant, 270-250-9209

Travel: Cathedral Valley Loop trail

2022-11-27 - Capitol Reef National Park, Utah - Photo By Robert Ellis, Robert Ellis Woodworking
Robert writes, "The Grand Finale for our Capitol Reef Park visit...Cathedral Valley Loop trail. I mentioned this trail in my opening remarks about this park. I knew about this place before our visit, but was also aware it's not gonna be doable in a two wheel drive rental car...and yet here's an image from the trail. I put the notion of experiencing this place behind me, but as we were leaving Capitol Reef National Park we suddenly stumble upon a sign for this loop. For whatever reason at the time it didn't occur to me that this WAS the trail I wrote off as not gonna be able see...and...not until after driving for a couple miles on this dirt road, cresting the hill, taking some pics and getting back on the highway did it occur to me we got to experience it, albeit for only a couple miles.

Check this off the bucket list. What a beautiful place!

It is around a 57 mile loop, off-road trail. Part of the time you're in the National Park, and other times you leave it. Both entrances let you experience the bentonite clay formations you see in this photo. A quick search of images of bentonite hills on the internet returns lots of out-of-this-world drone pics from above the formations.

We just got a sampling, but this was my favorite place and image I took while visiting our last Park in Utah."

Cloud Splitter is a summit in Red River Gorge that can be reached from the Sheltowee Trace Trail, near the Bison Way trailhead, that offers stunning views and challenging terrain, and plenty of chances to test your claustrophobia on the way.
