Martha and I displaced at 8:30AM from near Westwater, UT and by Noon were near the town of Torrey, UT, on the western side of the Capitol Reef NP along the UT 24 corridor.
We found a nice spot near the town though a bit windy, conditions were otherwise optimal.
Shortly before 3PM, we headed out in the Honda CR-V about 7 miles to Panorama Point and the Goosenecks Overlook. We went to the Goosenecks area first, walking the 1/3 mile or so to Sunset Point:

Returning to the car, Martha rested a bit...
Goosenecks trail is in the same trailhead for Sunset Point. It was a short 600 ft walk amongst rocks and boulders to the overlook.
Surfing the winds at the overlook.
That's Sulfur Creek down there....
We've recently added a 70MAI Brand Dash Cam to the VRRV/CR-V. Mostly for recording incidents while driving but we're also exploring it as a travelogue tool.
See what you think of this video showing snippets of us driving to and from Panorama Point.

Hi Dom Your hitting some familiar places to us, Moab, Cap Reef, Torrey that part of Utah is amazing, enjoy. You guys heading down 12 to other NPs? Boulder Ut the Burr trail Inn has fabulous hamburgers and the pie alone worth the stop.
Spat...Boulder Ut the Burr?
I doubt we'll hit the other two NPs on UT12.... Been there done that didn't like the crowds.
Great dashcam footage! Gives a nice view into the drive and scenery. But the CRV doesn’t have a name yet??
Love the landscapes in your hikes. ❤️
BlazeOurWay, I believe Martha named the CR-V Harriet. The new one is Wanda. Thanks for the feedback though I'm not sure further video warrants the effort beyond what will be published today.
Wow, thanks for the panoramic ride. It awakens memories from the US road trip back when we lived in Canada almost 15 years ago... time flies by. Cheers, SonjaM
Time indeed flies, SonjaM....
