In this episode of the Unscaled Travel Show, Jeremy and Amy head to Capitol Reef National Park for a first-timer’s guide to one of Utah’s most underrated national parks.
From scenic drives and ancient petroglyphs to the famous pies at Fruita’s Gifford House, they break down the best stops, hikes, travel tips, stargazing, wildlife, and what first-time visitors actually need to know before exploring Capitol Reef.
Plus: the strange story behind the park’s name, the massive geologic “wrinkle” known as the Waterpocket Fold, and ::gulp:: a few reasons why you might consider skipping this park.
Unscaled is more than just a travel show. From visiting their favorite local hotspots in Las Vegas to eating octopus in Osaka, Unscaled is a show designed to make you curious about the world around you and laugh out loud at the mistakes made along the way.
Through their experiences, travel writer Jeremy Long and his co-explorer, Amy, have learned to appreciate the simple things in life, like a comfortable mattress and indoor plumbing.
Each episode is packed with helpful travel tips, recommendations, and an introduction to your new favorite destination from travel industry insiders and influencers. They hope that by sharing their stories (and sometimes failures), they can inspire others to get out and explore the world.
