Bryce Canyon 2

We started hiking early around 8 am and went into the canyon at Sunrise Point, a 3 minute walk from our cabin. Navajo Loop and Queen's Garden were full of hoodoos, rock formations that remind me of tall ghosts. Total hike was about 7 miles, some of it climbing fairly steep steps. Toward the end of the hike around 12 noon it got windy and the cool breeze was a surprising relief. We ate back at the cabin and took a break.  After exploring the visitor center exhibits we enjoyed a few minutes of unexpected wifi. Used the free bus/shuttle system, as the parking lots near the popular stops were closed due to lack of room. Hiking is not fun after 2:00, as it is super sunny, dry, and the exertion could even be dangerous. We've been lucky to enjoy temperatures under 90 and the rain with flash flood warnings all last week (which would have prevented any hiking in narrow passages) is all but gone.
