 Bryce
Canyon National Park contains
a spectacularly beautiful series of "amphitheaters" filled with
colorful, eroded rock forms. It can not be adequately described in words
and is only somewhat better represented with photos. It's a place where
you can spend hours at any number of overlooks staring in wonder. You
will undoubtedly find after a visit that you've taken many more pictures
than you had thought in an attempt to capture its brilliance. A trip through
southwest Utah must include a stop at Bryce Canyon.
Bryce has an easy scenic drive to great lookouts
and a number of hiking trails down into the amphitheaters and among the
"hoodoos" -- the name given the eroded rock pinnacles and spires
that fill the park. Horseback trips are also available. In winter, cross-country
skiers can enjoy the park on several ungroomed trails.
Bryce is located off Hwy. 12, about 14 miles
east of Hwy. 89 in south central Utah. The nearest substantial town is
Panguitch about 23 miles northwest.
