Sensory Overload

We got up a little after five this morning so we could get to the Bryce National Park to see the canyon in early light. The temperature was 32 degrees and it took a few minutes for me to get the windshield cleared of frost.

The views were spectacular as expected. We drove back to the motel and fixed some breakfast and loaded the van. We were back to the park by 8:30.

We revisited some of the viewpoints that we saw yesterday. The difference in the lighting affects the viewing.





After leaving the park we continued along Utah highway 12 heading for Capitol Reef National Park. UT 12 is a scenic drive and it is hard to come up with words to describe awesome views.

We stopped at the visitor's center for the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument
