Lomatium & Krill (Fiery Furnace)

Where: Arches National Park, Utah
When: October 2009
Who: Kip Marshall, Double-A, Andy Mac & Morgan

Ram first mentioned Fiery Furnace to me a couple years back. Said he’d been through it about twenty times. Then Kip started mentioning it. A classic tour, word had it.

Kip invited me to join him on his annual trip to the Furnace once or twice before, and this time, I joined him. And it did not disappoint!
