Capitol Gorge
Capitol Gorge follows the Capitol Wash through the Waterpocket Fold of Capitol Reef National Park, Utah going from the south end of the Scenic Drive to the town of Notom on the east. Through the Fold, Capitol Gorge becomes deep and narrow, with several sections of almost slot-like proportions.
This was the principal route through the national park until Highway 24 was built in 1964. The gorge takes visitors past Petroglyph panels, a pioneer register, and the famous waterpockets or water tanks.
