The Jaunt - (1 Hour)
Hike Description
If you love hiking, the desert landscape, or simply want a photo opportunity this is the hike for you. With industry leaders as your guide and sturdy llama companions by your side this is one of the few things you get to do on your vacation that you will never forget. We hike ½-2 miles along Sulphur Creek bed that is full of gypsum (crystal) vanes. We have exclusive access to the Western Water Pocket Fold portion of Capitol Reef National Park. With the Red Bluff, Meeks Mesa and Thousand lakes in the backdrop the scenery simply couldn’t get much better. We will introduce you to the llamas and each person will have the opportunity to lead their own llama if they choose. Your guide will greatly enhance your trip with their personal touch and interpretation of the flora and fauna. We also provide an organic snacks and water for each guest.
