Mossy Cave

On our way our of Red Canyon we stopped at a place called Mossy Cave and hiked to the waterfall and the cave. This is on the back side of Brycde.


Red Canyon Hiking

We stayed two nights at Red Canyon, which is just west of Bryce Canyon. This is the Arches trail.
We went on three different hikes (a total of 11 miles) and never saw another hiker. The trails were beautiful and great views.




Snow Storm at the Canyon

This is what our campsite looked like after the snow storm we had this afternoon. Luckly after we had about 3 to 4 inches of snow the sun came out and we were able to drive back to the rim for the sunset.

Cape Final Hike

Saturday we hiked to Cape Final, a beautiful hike and great views. We left camp at 6:45am and as you can see the weather was beautiful. We had thunderstorms and rain for most of the night.
As you can see the weather is starting to change and we ended up in hail and snow, enough to make the ground white. It was the perfect time to go into the village and shower and do the wash.




Hiking the North Rim Grand Canyon

Friday we hiked to Widforss Point (10 miles round trip). It is reputed to be the best view from the North Rim and it lived up to its billing. A great panorama.


Kayaking at Crescent Lake

Wednesday morning we gat a chance to go kayaking before the wind came up. We had a great time and saw lots of birds and ducks. Later in the day we went hiking.
This was our campsite at Winn Campground. We were all by ourselves and it was beautiful.
