17/10/2019 - Kanab → Bryce Canyon → Escalante Canyons → Kodachrome Basin State Park → Kanab / USA (370 Kilometer)

Buga: 05.11.2019

Early in the morning we set off for Bryce Canyon National Park. We were almost alone in the park. At an altitude of 2,400 to 2,700 meters, we had to put on our jackets despite the sun. In this morning light, the already impressive rocks looked even better. We could see hoodoos, fins, and windows. Huge rock pyramids, semi-circular rock basins, also known as natural amphitheaters, and natural bridges. Even Thor's hammer was formed. Once again, it's indescribable what nature has created here. We made several stops to enjoy the fantastic views. At the last stop, we saw the hiking trails that were created between the landscape, and we realized how tiny people are compared to these formations. Still impressed, we moved on to the next landscape, Kodachrome Basin State Park. The special thing about this park is the sandstone needles and rock chimneys that rise from the ground. Kodachrome Basin Park is part of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. This is a nature reserve in southern Utah with a total area of 7,689 km². We headed south on a dirt road. Past a natural bridge, various colored rock formations, and the first colorful trees. It was really a beautiful route, until... We went down a mountain, around a curve, and right behind it the road had a deep hole. No warning sign. And too late for us to brake. We drove right through. The whole car rumbled and suddenly made nasty beeping sounds. We had a flat tire. Now it was time to change the tire and drive slowly back to our accommodation in Kanab for the last 50 miles. Of course, there was no representation of our rental car company in Kanab. After many phone calls, we agreed to drive to St. George, 80 miles away, the next day to exchange the car. Provided they have one in the right size in this small town, because we had packed the trunk up to the roof. A less pleasant end to an otherwise great day.
