[at-l] Utah inquiry..

[jbryankramer@xxxxxxx (J Bryan Kramer)]

Bryce Canyon is my favorite, 8500 feet, cool, heavily forested and great
scenery and trails. Zion is good too but you need to get up on the rim out
of the heat or down the Narrows. Coral Sand Dunes SP and Kodachrome SP are
both good and in the same area. Capitol Reef is more central Utah.
