Bryce Canyon National Park is not a canyon...perhaps an amphitheater

My partner in this adventure was Luke Skelly. After an aborted attempt to do this trip in fall of 2013 due to a curling accident, we left Sandy, UT Friday afternoon at the beginning of rush hour traffic on I-15. Temperatures dropped and darkness fell before we arrived at North Campground.  A fire, snack and the view of a partly cloudy night sky ended the evening before crawling into our bags.

We began the next day at Sunrise Point

And ended at Sunset Point 

I was drawn to the scraggly, barely hanging on Limber Pine trees.

Luke, the gadget guy, downloaded a book on Bryce and we listened to a description at each destination along the way as we traveled to Rainbow point and back to our campsite. When we did our own thing late in the afternoon I found a perfect tree for sitting it. It hugged my body as I watched the snow fall. I made a short video about that experience...http://youtu.be/r-EVuAZHxqU
