We’ve spent the last few days exploring Bryce Canyon and the surrounding area. We’re staying in a campsite in the small town of Panguitch and we drove about 30 miles north of here to see the childhood home Butch Cassidy.
We also spent a day hiking in Bryce Canyon. The video below shows some of the amazing views we had.
And here are John’s incredible photos.
We hiked ALL THE WAY AROUND this canyon on the rim trail to a really far view point in the distance. We also hiked all the way back, although we did consider taking the shuttle for a few minutes before heading back on the trail :-). Around every corner of the trail was a completely different view of the canyon below.
The rock formations in the canyon are called hoodoos. There’re also called a tent rock, fairy chimney, or earth pyramid. A legend of the Paiute Indians, who lived here hundreds of years ago, says that the hoodoos are ancient “Legend People” who were turned to stone as punishment for bad deeds. I think the pictures below show why they might have thought so!
We’ve really enjoyed our time in Utah but tomorrow we’re heading out to Vegas!!! We have a big event to celebrate on Friday – our very good friends Ang and Bob will be tying the knot Vegas style! Stay tuned for pictures and wish me luck on the slot machines 😉
Where's Wanda (and John) Now? 
You never need luck in the slot machines 😬
