Bryce Canyon, Utah





Today we packed everything up, hooked up the trailer and drove to Bryce Canyon. It was a really pretty drive up Highway 89, just to the east of 15. We saw mule deer just off the road as we were driving & some gorgeous views of the mountains. We got a campsite at Ruby’s Inn, just outside the park at Bryce, and then took the shuttle into the park. Just like at Zion we went to the Visitors Center and watched the movie that explained about the park. We got back on the shuttle and went to Bryce Point, which is that furthest spot the shuttle will take you & got our first view of the canyon. It is pretty amazing! The hoodoos and rock formations are incredible. We realized that from Zion you spend most of your time looking up & here at Bryce you are staring down, down, down. From this point it is almost too big & removed to truely appreciate. We took the shuttle to Inspiration Point for another view and took some more pictures. We’re all pretty tired & the kids are not really in the mood for more hiking so we decided to call it a day & head back to the pool at the campsite. We’re learning a lot about camping, and so far…we’re having a trailer fabulous time!
