    Halls Creek Narrows - video added

    A couple of weeks ago my son Connor and I traveled from Fort Lauderdale to Halls Creek in the south end of Capitol Reef. Thanks to all the folks who help me out on the planning

    Gorgeous pictures! I need to add Hall Creek to my list.

    Thanks Swamp Thing for sharing your adventure.

    Thanks everyone!

    I stuck a Gopro on my hiking pole and shot my first hiking video. I've definitely mastered the "shaky-cam" technique, so hopefully it's watchable without inducing nausea. Since my hikes are usually precious to me (in time and money) I've never shot video before as it takes much more effort to get right than stills, but with the Gopro I was able to forget about the process - unfortunately it shows - and still get something to remember the trip by.

    It's long and boring (it's a hike after all) but that's the way I like it! Shows the shortcut route and the narrows mostly.

    Enjoy.

    Awesome photos and a stunning day to be there. What camera were you using for these shots? Someday I gotta get there.

    Sorry wingate, I did not see your question. All photos were taken with a canon 60D + 10-22mm lens.

    We spent a week at Capitol Reef five years ago and did a lot of hiking including cathedral valley but did not have time for this. Next time for sure.

    Great report and wonderful pictures.
    The Narrows look awesome. That could be something for me for my next year's trip

    I'm finally able to upload HD video to YouTube, so here's an HD version of the descent into halls creak drainage and the narrows, as well as a dashboard cam of the drive down Notom Rd from the visitor's center to the airstrip by the narrows, for those wondering whether to make the drive.
