Red Canyon (Utah)

This area, Red Canyon (near Bryce Canyon), is a majestic drive.  You are surrounded on both sides by towering red walls and gorgeous rock formations.  There are a lot of areas where you can park your car and take a short or long hike (I opted for a short one being that it was 98-degrees!).

 

Beautiful drive!

 

This was a nice, easy hike.

 

The scenery is so beautiful.

 

This little fella was with me on my hike!

 

Hovering around some shade I found!

 

These were some pretty flowers near the wonderful Red Canyon Visitor Center.  The people working in the center were so welcoming and nice.  They provide you with a lot of good information in this area.  http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/dixie/recreation/climbing/recarea/?recid=24942&actid=120
