Description
Taking up a tiny section of the immense Colorado Plateau, Bryce Canyon National Park is one of the exceptional national parks in southwestern Utah. Here a series of amphitheaters and canyons stretch out along the edge of the Paunsaugunt Plateau, easily enjoyed from a dozen or more overlooks along the 18 mile Rim Drive. From these vantage points park visitors can easily appreciate this diverse mix of barren desertland and forests of aspen and evergreens. Here along the cliffsides in a fairyland of eerie hoodoos, countless rock pillars, columns, tall ridges called fins, and highly eroded spires cast deep shadows across the enchanting landscape. One of the most famous hoodoos is Thor's Hammer, the main weapon of the Norse god Thor.
