Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon

Images temporarily removed..

It's late and I'm thinking about vacation. Last October we visited Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon. It was a great vacation. Bryce Canyon is one of the most amazing places on earth. The views are spectacular. Since it's not actually a canyon, but is in fact the edge of the Colorado Plateau, the scenery stretches below you and disappears into the horizon. Castles, ruins, knights, chess pieces, grottos, bridges and spires. It's amazing.

Zion is also beautiful, but you have to hike to discover the best parts of it. We spent more time in Zion than at Bryce, so we had a great opportunity to really enjoy the park. We hiked Angels landing and the Emerald Pools trail, drove the auto road and walked as far as we could on the narrows trail. It was a wonderful time. I think it's time to start thinking about another vacation.
