Bryce Canyon, UT

We arrived in Cannonville, UT (pop 63) in the rain and hail storm. It rained all day yesterday and last night. We are staying at the KOA which is small but nice. Today the weather was a mixed of wind and rain. Fortunately it didn't rain while we were hiking at Bryce Canyon.

I thought the entrance fee was a bit steep for a National Park ($25 a day) but it was worth the trip. The shuttle is definitely the way to go. The parking at the view points are limited. There are some really nice hiking trails and next year we want to hike the bottom of the canyon as opposed to the rim. It was beautiful but a little chilly, windy and 49 degrees. The top of the rim is at 8,800 feet.

Tomorrow afternoon we are going to Escalante Grand Staircase and the Petrified Forest.



Cannonville is in the valley 


Next year we plan to hike to the bottom
