Bryce Canyon

Although we were only there for a couple of hours, I was entirely transfixed by the geologic formations at Bryce. We hiked the Navajo trail, which starts at the top of the canyon, travels down into the canyon through a series of switchbacks and with a great feat of endurance, back up. Once inside the canyon, I imagined what it might feel like to be a miniature figurine among these colossal orange giants. There is a naturally occurring glow within the walls, created from all of the orange rock, bouncing off spires and dispersing the light from within. It was a photographic wonderland to have all this wonderful light at my discretion. I could probably spend hours here wandering around and through the canyon. I definitely want to go back to explore more here.
