Bryce Canyon National Park

Named after the Mormon Pioneer Ebenezer Bryce, Bryce Canyon became a National Park in 1924. Bryce is famous for its unique geology, which consists of a series of horseshoe-shaped amphitheaters carved from the eastern edge of the Paunsaugunt Plateau in southern Utah. Named after the Mormon Pioneer Ebenezer Bryce, Bryce Canyon became a National Park in 1924. Bryce is famous for its unique geology, which consists of a series of horseshoe-shaped amphitheaters carved from the eastern edge of the Paunsaugunt Plateau in southern Utah. The erosional force has shaped the colorful limestone rock of the Claron Formation into bizarre shapes, including slot canyons, windows, fins, and spires called hoodoos. Tinted with colors too numerous and subtle to name, these whimsically arranged rocks create a wondrous landscape of mazes, offering some of the most exciting and memorable walks and hikes imaginable.

Bryce Canyon Visitor Center

Embark on this epic adventure through Bryce Canyon National Park just before the Visitor Center. As we begin the drive, we'll learn about how the canyon got its namesake and about the original Paitue people who called this land home.

3

Fairyland Point

Our first detour is at the breathtaking Fairyland Point. This overlook offers a great sneak peek at everything Bryce Canyon contains: sweeping vistas, sheer cliffs, and, of course, the world-famous hoodoos!

4

Sunrise Point

Our next stop is one of the most famous in the entire park: Sunrise Point. From this vantage point, we'll see unique, picturesque rock formations spread out in front of us and a plethora of natural trails leading into the vast, alient landscape.

5

Sunset Point

Our drive brings us to another striking vista point overlooking the Bryce Amphitheatre: Sunset Point. Here, as we gaze out over the implausible shapes below us, we'll learn about the science behind their formations and understand what, exactly, makes a hoodoo. We'll explore the impact of geology and erosion over a monumental time scale, hoping to understand how such a incredible landscape came into existence.

6

Inspiration Point

We continue our self-guided tour deeper into Bryce Canyon, towards Inspiration Point. As we drive, we learn about the Paiute people and their mythologies. They had their own explanation for the uniqueness of this landscape and the origins of Bryce's famous hoodoos.

7

Bryce Point

This brings us to Bryce Point, which offers one of the most scenic vistas of the full amphitheater. Bryce Point is also famous for its extraordinary sunrises. From here you can watch the tops of hoodoos set alight as if by fire from the first rays of the rising sun. Like fire, the orange light quickly spreads driving shadows from all but the deepest recesses of the amphitheater. As we drive here, we'll learn about the Mormon settlers who followed the Paitue and tried to eke out a living in this unforgiving climate.

8

Paria View

Our self-guided tour continues to Paria View, where we see the effects of a centuries-old glacier. As the earth warmed about 12,000 years ago, the last ice age came to an end. As the enormous glaciers which covered the American continent melted, all that new water had to go somewhere. Answer: down the canyon!

9

Farview Point

Our next stop is at Farview Point. It’s not just the elevation that allows for such incredible views here -- the land here also offers something becoming increasingly rare in today’s world. Can you guess what it is? Clean air! That's helped along by the abundance of bristlecone pines here, which are the Earth's oldest trees.

10

Agua Canyon

At Agua Canyon two prominent hoodoos command attention. On the left, is the taller of the two towers, "The Hunter." To the right, the "Rabbit". Neither look anything like a hunter or rabbit though! As we drive on, we'll learn about rabbits, deer, and other wildlife of Bryce. We'll also understand what tricks they use to survive the scorching hot summers and deeply freezing winters.

11

Ponderosa Canyon

This brings us to Ponderosa Point, from which you can see the park’s iconic junipers sprawling out into the distance. We're now driving into the deepest recesses of Bryce Canyon National Park.

12

Rainbow Point

Finally, we reach the farthest overlooks inside Bryce Canyon: Rainbow and Yovimpa. From here, you can see nearly everything in Bryce Canyon -- the quintessential hoodoos, the verdant basin, the sheer cliffs. You can even see that you're on the top step of the incredibly massive "Grand Staircase" -- a geologic structure "stepping down" all the way to the Grand Canyon in Arizona.

Национальный парк Брайс-Каньон

Названный в честь мормонского пионера Эбенезера Брайса, Брайс-Каньон стал национальным парком в 1924 году. Брайс известен своей уникальной геологией, состоящей из ряда подковообразных амфитеатров, вырезанных на восточной окраине плато Паунсаугант в южной части штата Юта.

Брайс известен своей уникальной геологией, состоящей из ряда подковообразных амфитеатров, вырезанных на восточной окраине плато Паунсаугант в южной части штата Юта. Сила эрозии придала красочной известняковой скале формации Кларон причудливые формы, в том числе щелевые каньоны, окна, плавники и шпили, называемые худу. Эти причудливо расположенные скалы, окрашенные в слишком многочисленные и тонкие цвета, создают удивительный ландшафт лабиринтов, предлагая одни из самых захватывающих и запоминающихся прогулок и походов, которые только можно себе представить.

74

Туристический центр Брайс-Каньона

Отправляйтесь в это эпическое приключение по национальному парку Брайс-Каньон прямо перед центром для посетителей. Когда мы начнем поездку, мы узнаем о том, как каньон получил свое имя, и о коренных народах пайту, которые называли эту землю своим домом.

75

Фейриленд Пойнт

Наш первый крюк находится в захватывающей дух Fairyland Point. С этой точки зрения открывается прекрасный вид на все, что есть в Брайс-Каньоне: широкие перспективы, отвесные скалы и, конечно же, всемирно известные худу!

76

Восход Точка

Наша следующая остановка — одна из самых известных во всем парке: Sunrise Point. С этой точки зрения мы увидим уникальные, живописные скальные образования, раскинувшиеся перед нами, и множество естественных троп, ведущих в обширный инопланетный ландшафт.

77

Сансет Точка

Наша поездка приводит нас к еще одной поразительной точке обзора с видом на амфитеатр Брайса: Сансет-Пойнт. Здесь, глядя на неправдоподобные формы под нами, мы узнаем о науке, стоящей за их образованием, и поймем, что именно создает худу. Мы изучим влияние геологии и эрозии в монументальном временном масштабе, надеясь понять, как появился такой невероятный ландшафт.

78

Точка вдохновения

Мы продолжаем нашу самостоятельную экскурсию вглубь Брайс-Каньона, к точке Вдохновения. Пока мы едем, мы узнаем о народе пайютов и их мифологии. У них было собственное объяснение уникальности этого ландшафта и происхождения знаменитых худу Брайса.

79

Брайс Пойнт

Это приводит нас к Брайс-Пойнт, откуда открывается один из самых живописных видов на весь амфитеатр. Брайс-Пойнт также известен своими необычными восходами солнца. Отсюда можно наблюдать, как верхушки худу загораются, словно от первых лучей восходящего солнца. Подобно огню, оранжевый свет быстро отбрасывает движущиеся тени из всех уголков амфитеатра, кроме самых глубоких. Пока мы едем сюда, мы узнаем о поселенцах-мормонах, которые следовали за пайту и пытались зарабатывать на жизнь в этом неумолимом климате.

80

Пария Вью

Наша самостоятельная экскурсия продолжается в Париа Вью, где мы видим последствия многовекового ледника. Когда земля прогрелась около 12 000 лет назад, последний ледниковый период подошел к концу. По мере таяния огромных ледников, покрывавших американский континент, вся эта новая вода должна была куда-то уходить. Ответ: вниз по каньону!

81

Фарвью-Пойнт

Наша следующая остановка — Фарвью-Пойнт. Здесь не только высота дает такие невероятные виды — земля здесь также предлагает что-то, что становится все более редким в современном мире. Сможете угадать, что это? Чистый воздух! Этому способствует обилие здесь щетинистых сосен, которые являются старейшими деревьями на Земле.

82

Каньон Агуа

В каньоне Агуа внимание привлекают два известных худу. Слева находится более высокая из двух башен «Охотник». Справа «Кролик». Ни то, ни другое не похоже на охотника или кролика! По дороге мы узнаем о кроликах, оленях и других диких животных Брайса. Мы также поймем, какие уловки они используют, чтобы пережить палящее жаркое лето и морозную зиму.

83

Каньон Пондероза

Это приводит нас к Пондероза-Пойнт, откуда вы можете увидеть культовые можжевельники парка, простирающиеся вдаль. Теперь мы въезжаем в самые глубокие уголки национального парка Брайс-Каньон.

84

Рейнбоу Пойнт

Наконец, мы достигаем самых дальних видов внутри Брайс-Каньона: Рэйнбоу и Йовимпа. Отсюда вы можете увидеть почти все в Брайс-Каньоне - квинтэссенцию худу, зеленую котловину, отвесные скалы. Вы даже можете увидеть, что вы находитесь на верхней ступеньке невероятно массивной «Большой лестницы» — геологической структуры, «спускающейся вниз» вплоть до Гранд-Каньона в Аризоне.
