Cross-country trip DAY 16: Bryce Canyon National Park

After a restless night of sleep because of altitude, I headed out to Bryce Canyon National Park, which was about an hour and 15 minutes away from the AirBnb in Brian Head. Luckily, the weather was beautiful, no snow. I could not find an open breakfast place in Brian Head because of the off-season, so I stopped by a local General Store (yes, I love how there are general stores in small towns!) and got coffee and amazingly delicious pastries that were just out of the oven!

Bryce Canyon is a nice place. I originally did not even plan to go there when I began planning the trip, but I am glad I did, because it was my favorite place out of all in this trip.

I decided to go on real hikes...
I started with Navajo Trail, on to the more strenuous one, Peek-A-Boo Trail and finishing with Queens Garden Trail. Overall, a bit over 8 miles :)


But the views were worth it:










There was a sign not to feed wildlife, so I obeyed:


Finally, I headed back to my place in Brian Head. On the way, I admired the wilderness of Dixie National Forest.
