Bryce Canyon 12, 13 & 14 July (day 79 to 81)

---

We left Las Vegas early morning heading N-E on Interstate 15, leaving Nevada, briefly crossing the upper corner of Arizona and arrived at Tropic in Utah where we were going to stay 3 nights.
Tropic is literally in the middle of nowhere and would be one more rural place in Mormon Utah should Bryce Canyon not be at its door. It is an ideal place to stay for visiting the Park and has the extra benefit to be on the very scenic Utah State road 12.

Grand Canyon certainly is better know than Bryce Canyon, however should you have to choose between the 2, then we would recommend Bryce Canyon, it is beautiful and much more accessible. After a first day visiting the various places by car and stopping at all main turnouts to take the same pictures as other fellow tourists, we spent the other days hiking inside the Canyons and this was a unique experience.
It seems like the rock has been carved out by some giant artist and that the suns likes to play with the various forms, enhancing the unique natural colours. But why trying to describe such beauty with our poor words if a glance at our pictures will tell you so much more.
Enjoy,
