Day 5 - Sunset at Bryce Canyon

Day 5 - Sunset at Bryce Canyon

When I glanced at the map, I thought if I were able to get to the Natural Bridge by sunset it would be a great place to photograph. I arrived about an hour before sunset, took a couple photos, and decided to venture on. In the park there is a road that takes you all the way through it. Bryce Canyon has some beautiful, easily accessible view points. Near the end of Bryce Canyon are Rainbow and Yovimpa Point, providing views of the rock layers called the Grand Staircase. The elevation here is 9100 ft and you find yourself surrounded by Blue Spruce, Douglas Fir and White Fir trees. I was fortunate and there were really only a few cars in the parking lot. I was able to walk around and take in the views with only a couple of other tourists.
