Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park, April 20 - 23
Spent the past few days chasing sun breaks and dodging hail and thunderstorms. There wasn't a lot of good light to be found for photos but Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park are truly spectacular. The landscape of southern Utah in general is far more beautiful than I imagined. The contrasting colors of red rock, white snow, blue sky, and black clouds made a perfect western scene which I quickly paired with the local country western station in the car to get the full effect. As though on stage, supporting cast members revealed themselves one by one to complete the story: a field of bison, a man on a horse with a cowboy hat and spurs on his boots, a junk yard containing only vintage trucks, signs selling ostrich eggs and elk steak...this part of the country definitely warrants further exploration at a future time...
