Bryce Canyon Hiking


Southern Utah Summer Vacation
Part 7 of 7 - Bryce Canyon Hiking
[Table of Contents for the entire trip]

On the last day of our Southern Utah trip (after the morning Rim Trail Run), the four of us went for a great hike in the Bryce Canyon amphitheater. We did a loop that connected the Queen's Garden, Peekaboo, and Navajo / Wall Street trails. I've done variations of this hike twice before (with my parents in 2008, and with Andrea in 2010)... still, it never gets old. In terms of bang for your buck, there aren't many better hikes in the entire national park system.

Since it was July 4th, we broke out our most patriotic outfits...

Not an easy one - lots of up and down!
