Travel: Slot Canyon graffiti from 1911 2022-11-26 - Capitol Reef National Park, Utah - Photo by Robert Ellis, Robert Ellis Woodworking. Robert writes, "One of the things to look for in this slot canyon is carved, early pioneer signatures on the rock facing. Directly behind me, is the opposite wall with lots of early signatures. It is monitored by a park service camera...along with a hefty fine if you decide to add your own name to the wall. It is often missed by hikers. But this one intrigued me the most, cause I was scratching my head how they pulled this off..the names were approximately 50 feet off the ground. As I'm writing this I just noticed the last name Gifford...then there's the Gifford house on the Park property. I haven't researched whether or not that name and the Gifford House have a connection.
