Bryce Canyon, Utah
Another glorious natural wonder in southwestern Utah, Bryce Canyon and the Bryce Valley are known for the individual sandstone columns called "Hoo Doos." But the beauty of the Bryce Canyon goes far beyond the massed "Hoo Doos" at Sunrise Point. The road through the National Park winds and climbs for 26 miles and up to 8800 feet at the magnificent Rainbow Point. In between are huge vistas with views reaching out to a hundred miles on a clear day. Each stop and each point has a unique formation of sandstone, arches, forest and trees.
Nearby Kodachrome State Park is a hidden jewel tucked away near Cannonville, Utah. Small, beautiful, an area full of weird shaped formations and brick-red buttes intermixed with large white and red mesas, this State Park should not be missed. The campground is the best public camp ground of any of the dozens we have seen in national parks across the country.
