We left Bryce Canyon National Park this morning.
I have seen a lot of breathtaking, beautiful places in the past few years but this is definitely on the top of my list. Bryce Canyon is actually not a canyon but rather the edge of the Paunsagunt Plateau.
Bryce’s unusual appearance is due to geological structures called hoodoos that are red, orange and white in color. There is a Paiute Indian legend that says the hoodoos were once bad people that were turned to stone by a coyote. They are known as the Legend People.
There are a few arches as well as hoodoos.
Bryce Canyon is located at high elevation.
I liked the look of the railings that lined many of the walks and was impressed with how many handicapped accessible areas there were (including some of the popular hiking trails).
But the erosion continues and some of the nice looking railings will need to be moved back soon!
