Story

I won a free trip to Bryce Canyon in a drawing at work, so Tara and I went down for a night. We had dinner and a concert at Ebenezer's Barn & Grill then spent the night at Ruby's Inn. The next morning, we did the Soaring Over Southern Utah VR experience then we did some hiking in the park and drove home.

Story

For our December camp out, we took the Scouts down to Bryce Canyon National Park.

We camped in the North Campground. It was nice albeit not very flat. We set up camp, fixed dinner, and played games. We played dot dot dash, sardines, this is the moon, and Mafia. It was a lot of fun.

On Saturday morning, we went over to the visitor center. We looked around the museum and then watched a short file about the park.

We drove down to Sunset Point. We went to the overlook. Then we hiked along the Rim Trail to Sunrise Point. From there, we took the Queen's Garden trail down into the amphitheater. We took the Navajo Loop trail back out through Wall Street. It was a fun loop hike with awesome scenery.

Once we got back to the vehicles, we made lunch. Then we drove over to the Mossy Cave trailhead. We hiked up to the waterfall and hoodoos first then went up to the cave. It was a fun hike, but the cave wasn't very pretty this time of year.

Story

When we moved from Idaho to Georgia, we took a two-week road trip and tried to hit as many stops along the way as we could. Our car didn't have air conditioning, so we stopped in St. George to pick up a car from Jeff Dye on the way. One of the stops was at Bryce Canyon. At Bryce, we splurged and took a helicopter tour of the canyon. Jeremy fell asleep on the ride.
