Notom Road to Burr Trail - Capital Reef National Par - Sunday, October 4, 2015

Trail Name:  Notom Road to Burr Trail
Total Mileage:  50 miles
Difficulty Rating:  Easy
Total Time:  2 hour

This trail traveled through both Capital Reef National Park and private land.  The washboard Notom Road ran next to the Waterpocket Fold, a giant buckle in the earth's crust that stretches across south-central Utah. It was not very distinguishable from the road and we found this part of the trail rather disappointing.
The Burr Trail started with a dramatic climb with many switchbacks and took us into more interesting
