Desert Big Horn Sheep Capitol Reef National Park, Utah: 


 Capitol Reef has the most magnificnt rock formations ever. This place is Sedona, Arizona and the Grand Canyon all in one and more. 

We were driving down the 8.6 mile long Scenic Drive at Capitol Reef admiring the scenery. My eyes caught "something " unique on the rocky burgundy cliffs of the  * Moenkopi Formation. It took awhile to register and when I realized what they were I spoke as calm as possible to my husband who was driving. "Stop",.... ( he didn't hear me) again I said, "Stop"....... ( I spoke a little louder)..."STOP ".  My husband heard me that time and came to a stop. He looked curious.  I looked him in the eye and whispered while pointing to the cliffs, "Big horn sheep !" 

One was sleeping and the other two were resting, enjoying their afternoon. Zzzz ... it was an unusual sight I will never forget. 

This was an epic experience for us. I put together the photographs and videos I made of them below. I was so blessed to be in that spot at that time ! Enjoy the video 3:38.
