  "summary": "IDA-certified with an annual Heritage Starfest — Waterpocket Fold horizons.",
  "intro": "Capitol Reef protects the Waterpocket Fold, a 100-mile wrinkle in the earth's crust in south-central Utah. It's one of the quietest, least-visited of Utah's Mighty 5 parks, which means its designated dark sky status comes with almost no crowds even in peak season.",

  "drivingFromToronto": "The visitor center sits on Highway 24, about 11 miles east of Torrey, Utah.",
  "bestTime": "Late spring through fall on clear, moonless nights; the park is open 24 hours.",
  "highlights": [
    "Sits far from any major metro area, giving genuinely dark, pristine skies",
    "Panorama Point and the Fruita Historic District are easy, accessible viewing spots",
    "Occasional ranger-led night sky and telescope programs"
  ],
  "tips": [
    "No lodging inside the park — stay in Torrey and drive in after dark",
    "Cell service is unreliable; download directions before you leave town",
    "Bring layers — desert nights cool quickly even in summer"
  ],
  "whatToSee": "Milky Way arching over the orchards at Fruita, and exceptional views of faint deep-sky objects thanks to very low sky glow.",
