Bryce Canyon, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah, United States, North America
Bryce Canyon National Park is a national park located in southwestern Utah in the United States. The major feature of the park is Bryce Canyon which, despite its name, is not a canyon but a collection of giant natural amphitheaters along the eastern side of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. Bryce is distinctive due to geological structures called hoodoos, formed by frost weathering and stream erosion of the river and lake bed sedimentary rocks. The red, orange, and white colors of the rocks provide spectacular views for park visitors. Bryce sits at a much higher elevation than nearby Zion National Park. The rim at Bryce varies from 8,000 to 9,000 feet (2,400 to 2,700 m). The Bryce Canyon area was settled by Mormon pioneers in the 1850s and was named after Ebenezer Bryce, who homesteaded in the area in 1874. The area around Bryce Canyon became a U.S. National Monument in 1923 and was designated as a national park in 1928. The park covers 35,835 acres (55.99 sq mi; 145.02 km2) and receives relatively few visitors compared to Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon, largely due to its remote location. Bryce Canyon National Park is located in southwestern Utah about 50 miles (80 km) northeast of and 1,000 feet (300 m) higher than Zion National Park. The weather in Bryce Canyon is therefore cooler, and the park receives more precipitation: a total of 15 to 18 inches (38 to 46 cm) per year. Yearly temperatures vary from an average minimum of 9 °F (−13 °C) in January to an average maximum of 83 °F (28 °C) in July, but extreme temperatures can range from −30 °F to 97 °F (−34 °C to 36 °C). The record high temperature in the park was 98 °F (37 °C) on July 14, 2002. The record low temperature was −28 °F (−33 °C) on December 10, 1972. The national park lies within the Colorado Plateau geographic province of North America and straddles the southeastern edge of the Paunsagunt Plateau west of the Paunsagunt Fault. Park visitors arrive from the plateau part of the park and look over the plateau's edge toward a valley containing the fault and the Paria River just beyond it. The edge of the Kaiparowits Plateau bounds the opposite side of the valley. Bryce Canyon was not formed from erosion initiated from a central stream, meaning it technically is not a canyon. Instead headward erosion has excavated large amphitheater-shaped features in the Cenozoic-aged rocks of the Paunsagunt Plateau. This erosion exposed delicate and colorful pinnacles called hoodoos that are up to 200 feet (61 m) high. A series of amphitheaters extends more than 20 miles (32 km) north-to-south within the park. The largest is Bryce Amphitheater, which is 12 miles (19 km) long, 3 miles (4.8 km) wide and 800 feet (240 m) deep. A nearby example of amphitheaters with hoodoos in the same formation but at a higher elevation, is in Cedar Breaks National Monument, which is 25 miles (40 km) to the west on the Markagunt Plateau. Rainbow Point, the highest part of the park at 9,105 feet (2,775 m), is at the end of the 18-mile (29 km) scenic drive. From there, Aquarius Plateau, Bryce Amphitheater, the Henry Mountains, the Vermilion Cliffs and the White Cliffs can be seen. Yellow Creek, where it exits the park in the north-east section, is the lowest part of the park at 6,620 feet (2,020 m). The Bryce Canyon area shows a record of deposition that spans from the last part of the Cretaceous period and the first half of the Cenozoic era. The ancient depositional environment of the region around what is now the park varied. The Dakota Sandstone and the Tropic Shale were deposited in the warm, shallow waters of the advancing and retreating Cretaceous Seaway (outcrops of these rocks are found just outside park borders). The colorful Claron Formation, from which the park's delicate hoodoos are carved, was laid down as sediments in a system of cool streams and lakes that existed from 63 to about 40 million years ago (from the Paleocene to the Eocene epochs). Different sediment types were laid down as the lakes deepened and became shallow and as the shoreline and river deltas migrated.
Several other formations were also created but were mostly eroded away following two major periods of uplift.
Bryce Canyon National Park - Utah - Etats-Unis (version classique)
Le parc de Bryce Canyon se situe en Utah, dans le Grand Staircase . Son point culminant se trouve à 2 778 mètres. Sa position la plus basse à 2 018 mètres. En son centre, des milliers de demoiselles coiffées (ou hoodoos), s’élèvent entre 1,5 et 45 mètres de hauteur. Ces cheminées de fée sont de grandes colonnes naturelles faites de roches friables, le plus souvent sédimentaires, et dont le sommet est constitué d'une roche plus résistante aux effets de l'érosion. Ces formes étranges, parfois phalliques, présentes un peu partout sur la planète, comme en Cappadoce, en Turquie, sont à l'origine de nombreuses croyances ou légendes. C’est d’ailleurs pour cette raison que ces colonnes sont appelées les hoodoos, aux Etats-Unis. Ce nom fait référence au culte vaudou, donnant à cette forme pittoresque des pouvoirs magiques.
La magie a opéré sur moi au point que je suis resté des heures scotchées à observer ces merveilles de la nature. Mais il fallait que je bouge, car la légende dit que ces hoodoos sont des restes pétrifiés d'anciens êtres, qui ont été punis pour avoir mal agi. Etre pétrifié d’admiration est une belle mort, mais il faisait tellement froid que je me suis mis tout naturellement à marcher, surtout en fin d’après-midi, quand le soleil est tombé et que le vent glacial s’est levé...

Bryce Canyon Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about nature park Bryce Canyon in the USA.
In the south of the US federal state of UTAH, there’s a destination that attracts nature lovers from all over the world: Bryce Canyon National Park, 145 square kilometres of pure nature. Millions of years ago, due to extreme subterranean pressure, the Earth’s surface cracked and a landscape was created that is without equal, a gigantic amphitheatre of red stone scattered with a thousand rock needles that tower toward the sky. Typical of Bryce, the canyon’s fantastic and bizarre „hoodoos“ were created by natural erosion and rise ever upward like towering cathedrals and great skyscrapers, conveying a sense of eternity. The highest point of the park reaches a height of over 2000 metres and contains pines and juniper trees whereas, lower down, there are poplars and willows. In contrast to other canyons, Bryce is not a ravine. It is reminiscent of an amphitheatre that has been dug out of soft limestone. Its rock formations, which originally formed on the seabed, contain large quantities of minerals that produce a fascinating array of colour. Iron oxide is responsible for the strong red tones, copper produces the green hues and manganese adds deep violet. With its various lighting effects, the sun continuously casts a spell on the rocky terrain of this mystical place. This setting of stone and colour infatuates the observer and seduces his imagination and it’s easy to believe that one is in another galaxy. The landscape suggests another planet, an unknown world, Light Years away from Earth, and a Black Hole away from civilisation as we know it. The semi-fanciful rock formations are reminiscent of the irregularly-shaped buildings in fairy-tales, sagas and actual reality. Thus this architecture shaped by nature has been given names such as ‘Thor’s Hammer’ and ‘Gulliver’s Castle’ and it has also been likened to Hindu temples and even Wall Street. But the magical fact is…this landscape is a natural reality!

Hiking Navajo Loop Trail | Bryce Canyon National Park | 3 min (Utah)
We hiked the hoodoos of Navajo Loop Trail in Bryce Canyon National Park, UT. This is one of the most popular trails in Bryce Canyon NP.
Hoodoos are most commonly found in the High Plateaus region of the Colorado Plateau and in the Badlands regions of the Northern Great Plains.
We loved walking in the middle of these colorful limestone rock formations. Their beauty was breathtaking. The amazing giant Douglas Firs trees are between 500 and 700 years old and in the middle of the hoodoos. The trail offers a great view on Thor's Hammer. Sunset Point in the best view in the park after Inspiration Point.

1945 BRYCE & ZION NATIONAL PARKS TRAVELOGUE RIDERS OF THE RAINBOW ROCKS 47254
This 1945 color travelogue Riders of the Rainbow Rocks about Bryce and Zion National Parks as mostly seen from horseback is presented by Bell & Howell as part of its Filmosound Library Series “Our Colorful World.” The narration is in the form of cue cards on a cloth background. It begins in southern Utah. A 1940s car crosses a bridge on a dusty road to Cedar Breaks National Monument. A man walks out to the edge of a rock with the canyon below (:39-1:12). The towering Red Canyon rocks are shown (1:15-1:25). The car drives through an arch cut through the rocks (1:26-1:32). At Bryce Canyon, a young boy wearing suspenders and a cowboy hat points to the distance (1:33-1:44). The pinnacles rise like fingers or the tops of castle towers (1:57-2:25). Named rock formations shown include Cleopatra’s Needle (2:32), Queen Victoria (2:39), and Victorian Arch (2:54). The boy gets on his horse. A close-up is shown of his boot with a spur (3:06-3:14). A woman on a Pinto horse has it rise up on its hind legs (3:15-3:28). A group on horseback ride on a winding path at the base of the canyon 3:29-3:57). They ride past Thor’s Hammer (4:02) and continue down the winding path (4:05-4:37) to Wall of Winds (4:41), Oastler’s Castle (5:05), and Tower Bridge in Fairyland (5:17). The bus leaves Bryce Lodge for Zion National Park (5:39-5:50) and passes through the mile-long tunnel (6:02). The bus passes Angels Landing (6:22) and The Watchman (6:31) on its way to Zion Lodge nestled beneath Lady Mountain (6:41-6:52). The guide sports a bushy white mustache and wears a cowboy hat and chaps as he stands next to horse (6:56-7:03). The riders move downhill through green grass and trees (7:04-7:12). They ride up the canyon wall via the West Rim Trail. In some spots the trail is next to a sheer drop-off (7:16-8:52). The rider’s take a break. A campfire blazes and a man makes coffee while a squirrel in a tree watches. It sniffs the lunch of a woman. A baby chipmunk climbs up her arm (8:03-8:50). The group walks their horses back down the trail (9:03-9:12). The switchbacks are named Walter’s Wiggles and shown from a distance to see their serpent-like twists and turns (9:13-9:39). The Great White Throne, nearly 3,000 feet high, is panned from the bottom up (9:43-9:55). The riders continue on the red rocks of the switchback trail (9:56-10:06). They pass long waterfalls and rapids in a stream (10:07-10:21). Back in the valley, the riders walk their horses down the middle of a stream (10:22-10:45).

Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah
#brycecanyon #utah #brycecanyonnp
Der Bryce-Canyon-Nationalpark liegt im Südwesten Utahs in den Vereinigten Staaten. Grund für die Ausweisung als Nationalparks ist der Schutz der farbigen Felspyramiden, der sogenannten Hoodoos, an der Abbruchkante des Paunsaugunt-Plateaus. Dieser Abbruch verläuft überwiegend nicht linear. Stattdessen haben sich nach Osten hin offene, halbkreisförmige Felskessel in das Plateau erodiert, die von der Nationalparkverwaltung als natürliche Amphitheater umschrieben werden. Das größte dieser Amphitheater ist der fälschlicherweise als Canyon bezeichnete Bryce Canyon.
Der Bryce-Canyon-Nationalpark befindet sich in einer Höhe von 2400 bis 2700 Metern und liegt damit wesentlich höher als der nahegelegene Zion-Nationalpark und der Grand-Canyon-Nationalpark.
Der Park wurde um 1850 von weißen Siedlern besiedelt und erhielt seinen Namen von Ebenezer Bryce, der sich um 1875 dort niederließ. Der Nationalpark wurde 1924 zum National Monument und 1928 zum National Park erklärt. Heute besuchen deutlich über eine Million Besucher jährlich den Park. (Quelle: wikipedia.org).

Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah - Rainbow Point HD (2013)
The Rainbow Point Comfort Station and Overlook Shelter in Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah were designed in 1939 by A.V. Jory of the National Park Service Branch of Plans and Designs in the National Park Service Rustic style. Located at the southern end of the Rim Road at Rainbow Point, the buildings were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1940.
The comfort station, otherwise known as a public toilet, is set back from the rim of Bryce Canyon. The comfort station is designed in the logs-out style, sheathed in V-joint wood shiplap siding, with half-round logs covering the joints. The roof is framed with log rafters. The shelter is located directly on the edge of the canyon, facing outwards. The shelter uses massive vertical log posts supporting a log-framed roof. Vertical board siding is used as an infill on the rear half, which is open to the canyon on the front. Siding encloses two small storage areas behind the main interpretive displays.
