.....FireWife!

We left an exit vehicle at the main Capitol Reef Campground and headed to the Grand Wash trailhead.
Fire canyon has a nice 130 foot rappel at the head of the canyon. There are also other shorter rappel options.
Fire canyon like all other Capitol Reef canyons is amazingly scenic with some wild geologic features.
The dark narrow section was tight, wet and fun.

We chose Wife #5 to finish this route. She is probably one of the best of the wives.

Thanks to my canyoneering partners Jessica, Alijeh, Carl, Jeremy and Lorin for great time and great pictures.
