Must See OK I am driving down I70 and see that there is a national park just a few minutes off the highway. If you have ever driven on this stretch of road, you know how beautiful it is. So, I turned off the interstate to go check out the park. The park is an pallet of colors on the tall walled canyons.
Favorite Activity At the Visitor Center, there is a graded road that winds its way deep into the park. This road will take you into tight canyons. It is like driving into the bottom of the Grand Canyon. You have got to get out of your vehicle and just walk around in a jagged wonderland of color.
Restaurant Recommendation Ate dinner at Cafe Diablo in Torrey. Kind of upscale Mexican food - not like any other Mexican restaurant that I have been to. The chef knows what he is doing and everything was delectable.
Lodging Recommendation

I stayed over night in the Howard Johnson's in Torrey. Just like every other HoJo very comfortable and friendly.
