See Park Video As we drove through the arches on Scenic Highway 12 where Utah Governor Dern once proclaimed that he believed in fairies, we were admitted to the fairyland that today is Bryce Canyon National Park. It's truly unlike anything we've ever seen. Yes, we can...
It's just incredibly, this plateau created by gear seismic activity 16 million years ago. On the other side of this 8000+ foot high formation is the legendary Bryce Canyon. We came to this part of Utah to visit Bryce but now are discovering so many more possibilities.
