Mid-late November?

What is Capitol Reef and the Torrey area like in late November (just before thanksgiving)?

Are restaurants open? I don’t need a ton of options, just somewhere to get a hot meal.

Do most of the trailheads remain accessible by suv at this time of year?

I’m an east-coaster, but after visiting the other Utah parks, Grand Canyon and hiking the JMT in the past 2 years, I’m pretty addicted to seeing as many west coast parks as I can.

My work allows for mid-late November time off. I would love to spend 10ish days doing a loop from Salt Lake City, through Moab for few days, then Cortez, CO ( Mesa Verde) for a day, then Torrey, UT for a few more days before heading back to the SLC airport.

Is late November a realistic time to visit Capitol Reef/Torrey, UT?

Thanks!
