This is just off US Highway 89, about halfway between Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks. I'd passed by here once before in the winter of 2020, but it was dark and in the middle of a snowstorm as I made my way to my motel in Panguitch. I had no idea this little slice of Bryce was here. As this was near the end of my trip there would be no return to the actual Bryce this time as I'd run out of it--time, that is.
As one might guess owing to the snow, it was cold this day. The previous day had been unbelievably warm as I toured Zion, but that was the last nice day of my trip, which was just as well as I had to be back in Topeka in two days for the Kansas Silent Film Festival. Almost 1,200 miles lay ahead of me, and since I always drive well under the speed limit, I was really pressed. I only stopped twice for photos after this--once briefly at Red Canyon (just off US-89 near Bryce), and at Mt. Logan in Western Colorado just off I-70 (see: www.flickr.com/photos/80014607@N05/53333075004/in/datepos... ). There would be no little detours for me. Another words, from here it was basically a long cold, boring slog. But though I hate that kind of driving, I don't mean to complain. After all, I had a month of very non-boring drives before this coda.
This is a Pano combining three photos taken with my Nikon D810.
