Day 3 Bryce Canyon

Another day, another walk unspoiled.    We headed about 49 miles south to Bryce Canyon NP.    We'd been there about 3 years ago, in June.     This day it was a bit cooler and a lot more crowded.   Utah takes a break from school in Oct and this Thursday was the first day.    I was happy to see so many kids and parents out seeking nature at it's finest.    But it meant for crowded trails so we opted to just do a few miles of the Rim Trail.    Bryce is all about looking down from the top.   To see it up close, you must walk  down into the canyon among the hoodoos.   It is very unique and fun.   


Since we already knew what was down there, we strolled for awhile and then ran into part of our group and opted for lunch at Ruby's Restaurant....... I ordered a portobello burger (the best I've ever had) and then justified the 4 berry pie by the prior 2 mi walk.    They are known for their pies!    
  


The next morning we packed up and headed back home.   We were a bit delayed by a slow moving traffic jam....
