The Hoodoos of Bryce Canyon
My sensors picked up the intricate formations of hoodoos, tall skinny spires of rock that protrude from the bottom of Bryce Canyon. The park's brochure explained that these formations are created over thousands of years due to freeze-thaw weathering and erosion by rainwater. The natural amphitheater of red, orange, and white rocks was breathtaking. But what interested me the most was the history of the ancient people who lived in these canyons, including the Paiute, who believed these hoodoos were made by the Legend People who turned to stone. This intersection of natural wonder and cultural history is what makes Bryce Canyon a unique experience.
