Sept 21 - Yay, Utah! I must say, the scenery is amazingly beautiful. We arrived at our campsite after dark, so I woke up to gigantic red canyon walls. We drove to Bryce Canyon National Park and decided to hike down into the canyon, which was amazingly gorgeous. The canyon walls towered above us as we winded down the trail. With every step, I saw something interesting (sediment layers, mudsicles, and trees that grow out of rocks!) About halfway through our hike, we came across a dry river bed. We followed it up the canyon. The scenic vista before me was amazing. We left the park and headed up north to Salt Lake City. The Mormon temple is in the center of town, and the streets are numbered so that at any corner, you know how far you are from the temple. We ate at Crown Burger, an SLC specialty (a burger topped with pastami, yum!) We camped in Wasach National Forest just west of SLC,
complete with a campfire and smores! Super yum!
