While not being a canyon, Bryce Canyon is an exciting national park where you can see truly unique landscape, and let your fantasy loose on all the oddly shaped geological formations and their many different colours.
The sight of this landscape was very intriguing. Bryce Canyon has some really unique landscape - that is not easy to understand. Somehow, my fantasy was triggered when looking out over this enormous collection of small canyons, fins, and hoodoos. Some parts look like enormous castles, where you almost expect a princess behind a window, waiting for her secret lover on a white horse. Then, there are parts where you could imagine skyscrapers, with pointy tops. Temples. The Potala Palace. Or rows upon rows of people, standing still. We returned in the afternoon, and learned that because of a pretty big bushfire, much of Bryce Canyon National Park was closed. We decided to head towards the southern side of the main amphitheatre, and walked the Navajo Loop. Dropping down fast, we ended up walking at the foot of some very tall hoodoos, through narrow canyons, and arrived in an open area with trees before we headed back up through Wall Street. Aptly named after the financial street, this is a particularly narrow stretch where you could almost touch both walls with your arms extended. From here, it was a nice climb back over many switchbacks to the top. We went to Bryce Point for sunset - and behind us, saw a huge column of smoke emanating from the landscape. Seeing the sun set over the wide landscape below us was quick, and when the sunlight disappeared behind the rim, the colours were extinguished almost at once.
