Ashley Gorge Via Ferrata:
Have you heard of Via Ferrata? It means “Iron way” in Italian. Via ferrata routes are climbing paths equipped with permanent horizontal tensioned steel cables, steel climbing rungs, and ladders, and aerial cable bridges. You will clip yourself while following the routes. The only and Utah’s first public via ferrata without needing a guide is in Ashley Gorge near Vernal, UT.
The routes range from beginner-friendly 4 hour adventures to a full-day 8-mile challenges that takes 8-10 hours. Will determine if we will do half day or full day course later.

Leave it better than we found it. (http://clarkwork.ssl2work.com/campInfo.php?p=better) It is our intent to spend limited time at each location finding ways to leave it better than we found it. Look for more information in each events' detail.
