From Page, on the 13th day of our trip, we drove to Bryce Canyon. This national park, located at over 2,500 meters above sea level, is not actually a canyon but the edge of the Paunsaugunt Plateau, where semi-circular rock basins have eroded into the plateau. This is how the famous colored rock pyramids, called Hoodoos, were formed. From the park entrance, we took a shuttle bus to one of the outer viewpoints, where we then walked back towards the Visitor Center along the Rim Trail. Along the way, we had a picnic at a shady spot right on the edge of the canyon and enjoyed the magnificent view of the so-called Amphitheater with its countless Hoodoos, as well as the mountains and forests of Utah. In the evening, we stayed at a small lodge near the national park, where we fired up the grill and enjoyed a delicious BBQ with steaks, burgers, and cold beers; next door, a Dutch family set up their vegan dinner buffet: European contrasts indeed...;-). Before going to bed, we had a little surprise: despite insect screens on the windows, with the door open, swarms of flies gathered on the ceiling of our cabin. So here in the wilderness, before going to sleep, we had to make a hunting effort (of course, the "massacre" took place behind drawn curtains out of consideration for our neighbors...).
