Bryce Canyon National Park is a rare national treasure, located in Utah. The park consists of huge bowls etched into the high plateau. Over many years, water has frozen and melted, creating cracks in the rocky ridges of limestone and sandstone. These ridges are exposed to further erosion from water and wind. The sun illuminates the rock pillars, called hoodoos, revealing their white, pink, and orange layers. Bryce Canyon National Park has more hoodoos than anywhere else in the world. Many species of animal make their homes in the canyon, including prairie dogs, mule deer, and mountain lions. The region is the only home of the Bryce Canyon Paintbrush, a rare, fuchsia wildflower. This mysterious landscape produces phenomenal photographs. As a result of its unique appeal, Bryce Canyon was established as a national monument in 1923 and became a national park in 1928.

There are many ways to experience Bryce Canyon National Park. Visitors often come to see the cliffs at sunset or sunrise in order to get the best effect. Others visit at night to see a vast blanket of stars. Many visitors drive or take a shuttle bus to the different viewpoints between the spring and early fall. Traveling in groups helps to manage the traffic flow. It also decreases the environmental impact of people on the park. Those wishing to see an aerial view can take a helicopter tour. Other tours include ATVs or horseback riding. Daring individuals can hike or bike around or in the canyon. Descending below the plateau's edge offers a unique perspective of the hoodoos.
