Cassidy Canyon (Capital Reef NP)
There are many who are aware of Cassidy Arch in Capital Reef, but very few know about the canyon below the arch. The canyon below the arch was rumored to be a hideout of Butch Cassidy and his gang. The canyon is only accessed by the use of ropes.(canyoneering)
Sometime ago, before Capital reef was a park, a via ferrata system was in place to allow the ambitious tourist access to another arch, part way up this canyon. The system has been removed, but a few remnants remain, such as chiseled stairs in the sandstone and this bridge. |
