The Burr Trail

If you want an awesome (and challenging) driving tour, you can’t get much better than the Burr Trail. It starts as a paved road in Boulder, Utah and turns into graded dirt when you enter Capitol Reef National Park. The most exciting part was the switchbacks which cross the Waterpocket Fold and descend very steeply to the valley below. Dad says that he’s glad we were going downhill. All you have to do is put it in low gear, keep your foot on the brake pedal, and let gravity do the rest.

As you can see from the picture the scenery was spectacular the whole way.
