Canyoneering: Capitol Reef National Park - Burro Wash
We went to Capitol Reef over the weekend to do some canyoneering at Burro Wash. It was awesome! We missed the first turnoff and ended up climbing up a cliff. Then we got to the entrance at the top of the slot. There are probably 3-4 great sections of narrows and slots. Water was waist deep at times. There was a bit of downclimbing - maybe 10'-15' at the most. It was a blast! Here are links to a description of the route:
