In March 2021 the Ross family went on a little excursion with the Hemsley family to Junction, Utah. With them we hit Bryce Canyon National Park and some other locations. I previously wrote of our visit to Capitol Reef National Park. On that same trip, before Capitol Reef, we hit Bryce Canyon National Park.

Here are a few photos of that excursion.

We entered from the north side of the Park through Bryce Canyon City.

You can probably tell from the photos. It was pretty chilly with the fairly new snow. The snow created some beautiful contrasts in color.

Some of it was a bit harrowing with the long drops from either side of the trail. Thank goodness we had Grandma and Grandpa, and aunts and uncles to help shepherd the children through.

These photos are all from the trails near Sunrise Point and Sunset Point.

Some of the hoo doos were definitely interesting.

Of course, I had to get a picture of Queen Victoria in the Queen’s Garden.

Once you hike down a trail, you must invariably hike back up. The Navajo Loop Switchback of course was our choice to return.

We may have been huffing and puffing, along with exhausted and moody children, at the end of the loop switchback.

Some of the rock formations were simply amazing.

In the middle of the day I had to sequester myself to the van for some 341 bankruptcy hearings. After the day, we started heading toward Capitol Reef National Park and spending the night in Escalante for Escalante National Park.
