Ely, NV to Torrey, UT (doorway to Capitol Reef National Park)

We had all kinds of weather today- Ely was 45 this morning, then it climbed to 98 degrees, dropped to the 60’s as we drove east through and around rain and a bit of hail, then back to the 70’s and stayed there with incredibly blustery winds.

We got to Torrey just outside of Capitol Reef NP and planned to drop of our gear and go into the park for a hike. But, the rain we skirted all afternoon continued to look very close and threatening so we stayed in town instead. We’ll see the park tomorrow instead.
