Bryce Canyon National Park is also on my list of the most beautiful places I've seen.
Our home base for Bryce was at the KOA in Cannonville, Utah; and this is where we met fellow Ontarians, Al & Kelly from Bayfield. We were going to the same places; and ended up travelling together for the next couple of weeks.
The first day at Bryce, we did the driving tour. There were many stops along the way, and the scenery was breathtaking! The rich red colours of the "spires" or "hoodoos" in this national park were incredible. The drive took us to the end of the park; where you're eyes are treated to the Bryce Amphitheatre - and WOW! Didn't know which direction to look first and the camera went into overtime while here. It's a good thing we have a digital.
The next day we went back to Bryce and took a hike down into the Navajo Loop and then into the Queen's Garden. Wow! We started off on a pretty steep tight switch back trail; once you were down into the canyon, it was just a normal hike. Except you're surrounded by these amazing "hoodoos" and it's incredible. The loop then takes you into the Queen's Garden; and I guess it got it's name cause there's a lot of "royal" shaped "hoodoos" in this area. And again, absolutely breathtaking.
The whole hike was roughly 4 hours; and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
Take a look at our pictures that we've posted.
