Outstanding hike! A few places I've been, and a lot that I'd like to see!

Never hesitate to post trip reports even if you're not a native English speaker, we will enjoy them!
 
Wow, love it! Congratulations. Big achievement with it being so dry last fall.
I recognize many beehive spots, but can only dream about getting to the rest, ha!

Wonderful trip! We were supposed to have done a guided Beehive Traverse trip in April 2020, but COVID ruined that. Your report reminds me that I still want to do that. Thank you!
 
thank you, guys.
It is such a great area. I fell in 2017 and try to come back as often as possible. You can say, I caught desert fever pretty bad as well @SteveR. I plan to be back next month for another adventure. Every time I think of going some other place, I keep coming back instead.
Happy trails everyone!
 
A fine adventure. Perhaps I missed it, but would you be willing to post a rough map of your route?

Thanks, James (and Amy)

If you do end up sharing the route map, please do so via PM (private message) instead of posting publicly. The BT is still somewhat of a hidden gem and it would be good to keep it that way!

Capitol Reef NP - 5 Day Backpacking Adventure from Chimney Rock to Burro Wash - October 2023

I just loved this hike ! It is undoubtedly one of the best backpacking trips I have done in the South-West. I had visited Capitol Reef National Park on several occasions, walking many of the park trails, and exploring some of the backcountry on day-hikes. I had wondered for a while whether it...
