Bryce Canyon
The directions on the map they give you when you enter Bryce Canyon tell you to drive the 18 miles to the end of the road and stop at the outlooks on the way back. The suggestion was good in that you only had to make right hand turns but bad because some of the really neat stuff was closer to the front of the park. We saw a couple of mule deer on the trail as we walked to between two view points — very cute. Chipmunks, squirrels and grouse were also plentiful in the park and not afraid of people. The views from Bryce Point, Inspiration Point and Sunset Point were absolutely incredible — hopefully the pictures will be nearly as good as the real thing. There were some trails that led down into the canyon allowing you to walk around the hoodoos but due to lack of time we were unable to do that. Ed did manage to walk between a couple of the view points on the rim trail — Zaph and I drove between the lookouts.
