    Beautiful. More than I thought it would be. So many people have told us to go over the decades…read moreknowing we love to hike and every summer we hit a national park. But somehow we shy away from Bryce because we didn't think there was much to do, is it worth? Is it worth the detour? But this year we tried it out. My cousin and many others' favorite park and we never understood until now. Wow wow wow. We didn't think it could get more grand as we kept walking and riding to difference scenic points but it did lol We stayed in St George and drove out early to get here thinking it may be like Zion with no parking but I think on a weekday it would have been ok if we didn't set out so early. Nevertheless i think it was good because it did get hot later however this morning there was a nice breeze and made hiking bearable at 10am. We knew we wanted to hike down and heard Sunset point was the way to go. Actually whatever they suggested in our error we did the opposite and thank God we did because the hike back up was perfect lol if we had to hike up where we went down like so many others not sure how pretty that would have been in the heat. Because many were suffering hiking up while we were going down. So note to remember it's ok to pass sunrise point and go down the other way and come back up that part ~ much easier route and so beautiful still! Check out my pics And pictures do not do justice at all! I do want to mention if possible after lunch or when it gets hot to stop by those scenic points way down there because it keeps getting better and my fave is Bryce point lol gorgeous! A good tip is to bring picnic lunch or take a break back at the General Store. We went there multiple times in and out and between for souvenirs and refreshments. I love how this park has easy access to toilets and stuff. Spotty WiFi into the center of the hikes and climbs BUT still so clean and accessible by car. If we had more time and it was cooler we could hike down Bryce point area but this time it will do with that couple hour hike down sunset point. That was a nice leisure hike and challenge ~ shoes get dusty. Sticks are welcomed but not necessary. Hungry chipmunks do beg for food lol Just amazing views and beautiful arches, canyons and pics! Have fun!

    This place is so amazing. I drove to Rainbow Point (great views on the way and at the end for those…read morewho don't want to hike) as well as the Figure-8 Combination hike, which combines three amphitheater hikes, Queen's Garden, Navajo Loop, and the Peekaboo Loop. Wall Street was closed when I visited due to trail conditions, boo. It was a clear and perfect two days during my visit though. Most people visit for the hoodoos, but Bryce Canyon National Park also has International Dark Sky status. Its high elevation, clean air, and remote location equals some of the darkest skies in the country. Coincidentally, I went during a new Moon with clear skies and wow, I had never seen so many stars before. I brought binoculars and it was enough to see what felt like like thousands upon thousands of stars. I saw the Milky Way Galaxy too! It was amazing, and I felt like such a small speck of dust in comparison to the skies above. Definitely check out Bryce Canyon at night, although it was also kind of...different... to be driving in the middle of the dark. If you have bad night vision you might want to pass on this. It made me realize how much light pollution there is where I live.

    If you ever get the chance to go to Zion, take it! Zion is such a beautiful place with so many…read moredestinations to offer. My friends and I did a weekend trip here, and got to do two hikes and stargaze. The Narrows: I've watched videos and did some research before the trip. Highly recommend getting the $35 hiking set with shoes, stick, and socks from Zion Outfitters. To get to the narrows, you'll take the shuttle to the last stop, and hike the Riverside Walk trail to the end. The Narrows goes pretty far, and there are no restrooms once you get off the shuttles. The hike is very rocky, and you're essentially in the water most of the time. The water is absolutely gorgeous, and I'd recommend starting as early as 8am! Water is very cold, and cools down throughout the day. There's no real "end" so you kind of keep going until you're ready to turn out. Our friends and I, medium-hikers, spent about 6 hours and walked 8 miles round trip. The hike is mostly shaded, and only very few parts of the water went up to about chest level. For reference, I'm 5 feet. I'd recommend spending a full day for this hike to really enjoy it and a relaxing pace. We also did the Watchman trail on a beautiful morning, and it was so cool getting to go from bottom to top of the mountains. The hike was approximately 3 miles and took us 3 hours with the inclines. We also got to see a sheep along the way! At night, we stargazed right by shuttle stop 2, aka the museum. Because it is nearly pitch black out there, you could see so many stars and constellations. I don't personally know any other than the big and small dippers, but it was really cool to check it out!

    Zion National Park covers nearly 150,000 acres. Most people will go the most popular area in…read moreSpringdale, but there's a separate area known as Kolob Canyons which is located in a different area of the park about an hour's drive away. Kolob Canyons is a very pretty area, but less developed than Zion Canyon. Anyway, Zion has steep and sheer cliffs that leave you breathless. It also has a river and swampland, as well as emerald pools and waterfalls. It is so varied in its landscape, I really can't compare it to anything else. I hiked a whole bunch here: Angel's Landing, Emerald Pools, Weeping Rock, Riverside Walk, Canyon Overlook, even a bit of the Narrows. I want to do a through hike of the Narrows next time - I didn't have enough time in my schedule this time unfortunately. I saw more wildlife than expected too. I think a lot of the animals are habituated to humans, and aren't frightened at all. I also love how well run the shuttle system is. The bus drivers will radio to each other if there's a long line at any stop, and they will send an empty bus there to help avoid extended waits. It's so thoughtful. I stayed in the Zion Lodge, but I'm sure that the gateway town of Springdale has a similarly efficiently run shuttle system as well.

    We drove up from the Grand Canyon and stopped in Kanab for the evening. We checked out Hamblim Park…read moreso our toddlers could run around. It's a very cute little park at the foothill of a mountain. The kids really enjoyed the play structure. swings, LARGE grassy play area, and the spongee floor. Yep, I said "spongee". The ground beneath the play structure is filled with recycled (I'm guessing) rubber bits so walking on them makes folks slightly bounce. The park is right around the corner from the downtown area and on the way out of town. It was just the trick to get my littles out and about.

My preteen kids said it was one of the best shows they have seen due to our close proximity to the lighting of the fireworks! Everything seemed bigger! Explosions louder! We were practically right under most of the explosions in the sky, with ambers literally falling on top of us / the spectators! Perhaps because if the dry air. At the very end of the show, our fears were realized as one last firework exploded on the ground, and some cardboard shrapnels flew into the spectators, hitting some of them. Fortunately, we think there were no injuries! We were just glad that we could attend and celebrate 4th of July far from home!
