The Temples of the Sun and the Moon are located in Cathedral Valley in Capitol Reef National Park. These two sandstone monoliths rise almost 300 feet from the valley floor. The Temple of the Sun is actually slightly larger than the Temple of the Moon which is closer. Our trusty red truck which brought us to this remote location is at the base of the Temple of the Moon.
Happy Truck Thursday!
