This is the iconic scene at mile marker 13 on US-163, 13 miles from the border from Utah into Arizona. Everyone takes this shot and rightly so; no matter how many times you've seen this image, seeing this scene in real life is breathtaking.
"The most popular trail in Bryce Canyon National Park, the Navajo Loop Trail takes visitors down the rim from Sunset Point, through the narrow corridors of Wall Street, past the Silent City, past an intersection with Queens Garden Loop Trail, and the top of Peekaboo Loop Trail, before ascending the rim of the amphitheatre again at Sunset Point. The trail requires hikers to descend 800 feet down the side of the Bryce rim, and then at the end of the hike to climb right back up that slope."

Utah Highway 9 runs from Zion National Park across the Mt Carmel pass, heading towards routes to Bryce Canyon and the Grand Canyon. Almost totally deserted, the highway runs through some breathtaking and varied scenery.
This is a favourite spot for photographers, who line the bridge across the Virgin river to catch the sunset. Sadly, this particular night wasn't particulalrly spectacular for the famous south view, but looking north was a different story.
This is a favourite spot for photographers, who line the bridge across the Virgin river to catch the sunset. Sadly, this particular night wasn't particulalrly spectacular, at least looking south. This was about as good as it got on this night; typically, the evening before looked much better but I didn't have my tripod with me.
