Traveling Utah

I recently returned from my travels to Utah. On the trip, I explored canyons, rivers, and Mountaintops. The beauty that I beheld was something that photos cannot truly capture, but I did my best to capture some views that I could shared with you.

I hope you enjoy!

This photo was taken while driving through Utah. I do not know the exact location, but I knew it was a worthy spot and needed to be captured.

This photo was taken from a trail that took me down into Bryce Canyon and snaked its way through the National Park’s beautiful walls that are truly a sight to behold. The many colors on the walls and the greenery that thrives in the canyon, together, both add to the vibrance of Bryce Canyon’s splendor.

This photo is a view of the Hoodoos that call Bryce Canyon National Park their home (Hoodoo is a tall, thin spire of soft rock often topped with harder rock). It’s amazing to see that these rock formations stand high even though they do not seem to be the most sturdy looking.

The Toadstools is a great sunset spot located in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, and is an easy 1.5 mile round trip. The unique shape and beautiful red and white colored rock of the Toadstools make it seem as though you are not on earth anymore.

I had the pleasure of getting a tour of the Lower Antelope Canyon on my trip to Utah. The tour guide showed all the best angles and photo spots and shared stories from his Navajo heritage. It was a great experience and I plan on returning.

The Virgin River is beautiful and flows through Zion National Park and is a tributary of the Colorado River. The river is around 162 miles in length and was appointed as Utah’s very first wild and scenic river in 2009. Watching a river flow through a place where the word “desert” isn’t far off, is truly an inspiring sight.

I Hope that you enjoyed reading about my travels to Utah!!

Now it’s your turn to explore somewhere!!
