We've been to Capitol Reef 5 times in the last ten years. The last time was for 10 days. The hiking is like no other Park. Crowds just don't exist. We stayed in the NP campground in Fruita once. About as nice as they get especially in the spring with the fruit trees in bloom. In the fall you can pick fruit. The nicest FHU park in the area is Thousand Lakes in our opinion. If you have high ground clearance the drive across the river and out the NE corner of the Park is beautiful. Not technical wheeling. If you are an avid hiker do the Grand Wash, Upper Muley Twist and Spring Canyon. The slot canyons are great.
