This website is an image tour of Capitol Reef National Park. All pictures were taken in early June 2003.
The images are anaglyphs. They are large (~800 KB each) and may be slow to load, and require red and cyan 3-D viewing glasses. The image below is a pair of 3-D (anaglyph) viewing glasses.

A search on the World Wide Web will yield many sites about anaglyphs and where to get 3-D glasses.
