"A state in the western United States known for its vast desert landscapes, ski resorts, and the Mormon cultural heritage."
"Southern Utah’s Bryce Canyon National Park is known for a few things. For starters, it has the largest collection of hoodoos (spire-shaped rock columns) in the world. It also boasts amazing hiking trails and status as an International Dark Sky Park. While the park is open year-round, fall makes for an exceptional trip. It’s this time of year, says Wade, that you can see 'beautiful groves of aspen trees that turn in October and spectacular views of the colorful geological formations in the canyon.'" - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Known for its crimson-colored hoodoos and the Bryce Amphitheater, best explored via the Rim Trail." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Bizarre spires formed over millions of years are the main attraction at Bryce. After all, there’s a higher concentration of these hoodoos here than anywhere in the world."
"The wind-carved hoodoos of Bryce Canyon, the rainbow-rock mesas of Capitol Reef, the red-stone curves of Arches, the gorges of Canyonlands, the soaring cliffs of Zion — Utah’s 'Mighty Five' national parks spotlight and protect a mind-boggling diversity of ecosystems." - Mary Cropper
