bryce canyon national park, page two
When we arrived at the park, we first visited the Visitor Center and then drove to the end of the main park road. At the end of the road are two lookout areas, Yovimpa and Rainbow Points.
This photo and the next one are from Yovimpa Point. This was where we got our first view of the hoodoos for which Bryce Canyon is famous.
Hoodoos are rock formations, usually pillar-shaped, left by erosion.
I also took some panoramic pictures of the view from Yovimpa Point.
Next, we walked along a short path to Rainbow Point, which looks out north-eastward over the park.
From Rainbow Point visitors can see out to the nothern end of the park. It also gives great views of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
These two photos were taken looking east towards Grand Staircase-Escanlante. In both of these photographs, more hoodoos can be seen.
