Bryce Canyon was so spectacular, we decided to included it in today's outbound photo. When we approached Sunrise Point for the photo, we were surprised how different it looked in the morning compared to yesterday. The colors change throughout the day, so instead of the pink hues of yesterday, the rocks gave off an orange glow. Although not as impressive as the Grand Canyon, it comes in a close second, so if you've never visited, start making plans.
Pat and Sean took off at nine o'clock this morning and are aiming for Boulder, UT, about 70 miles away. Today's path on Route 12 will wind through other sections of Bryce Canyon National Park and Escalante Staircase National Monument before turning north and beginning the fifteen hundred ascent into Boulder. Given their fresh legs today, it should not be too much trouble.
Update: We made it to Boulder and camped at the local RV/Grocery/Gas Station.

Loved the photos from Bryce Canyon and glad to hear you took pity on the campground thief.
Hope the light day lets you really crank it up for the next couple of weeks.

Told you Bryce was waaaay cool. Boulder is also beautiful and you'll enjoy the cooler weather. Pat - you're great grandmother Rita (Mead's mother) use to live in Boulder. We wd visit her there and Lolo and I wd play in Cherry Creek when we were little kids. Fond memories... Love to all.
I loved Bryce canyon when i went there before you were born pat. i took a trip between semsters in graduate school in my truck and slept on the ground there, it was beautiful, did the same at the grand canyon on that trip and ran to the bottom and out. a little taste of your adventures and i love thinking about it to this day as you guys will always think of this trip. keep it up. uncle tim
