The "Hoodoos"

Its our second time in Bryce Canyon, known for its bulbous spires called hoodoos. We initially went to the park's campgrounds but found the sites offered very little privacy to set up our portable shower. This would mean no showers for 4 days or pay for them at another location. We decided to go to Ruby's RV and Campground outside the national park. It cost a bit more but has hot showers and extremely slow WiFi.

Our first hike was the Navajo and Queens Garden trail. It took us right to the bottom of the canyon, passed the "hoodoos", "windows" and "fins" formations. It was a popular track with loads of people. That is the downside of Bryce. It is easily accessible with truck loads of tour buses. However, the view is like non-other areas. Its a must-see when in this area.

After lunch, we went to the nearest town, Tropics to get groceries for dinner, lunch and breakfast for the next 3 days. On the way, we stopped at Mossy Cave for a quick sight seeing detour.
