We arrived Friday night but ended up staying in Panguitch for the night because it was late and it was pouring outside. We got a motel room. In the morning we went straight into the park. We went to Bryce Point to get a great view of the whole ampitheatre and then headed over to Sunset Point to do the Navajo loop. Unfortunately, the wall street part of the loop was closed so we took another route and our 1.3 mile hike turned into 5. It was a beautiful hike though and we got to see a lot more that we. We went down the Queen's garden trail, to Sunrise point and then walked the rim trail back to Sunset. After that we set up camp at the Sunset campground. We made tinfoil dinners, smores, and attempted some dutch oven.
You would think that in June it would be warm, but it was COLD and it actually snowed a little on us. I was completely freaked that we would all freeze but Two Fish promised that if we got cold we would jump in the car, find a hotel and come back for our tent in the morning. We decided to set up our little two man tent we bought before the girls were born and stuff the four of us inside. It was actually completely toasty in there and we had a great night all snuggled together. New Fish still doesn't think much of sleeping anywhere outside of her crib but she did pretty well.
Sunday morning we drove to several look out points including inspiration, agua canyon, natural bridge and rainbow point. It rained off and on all day but every time we got out of the car it would stop. We did a few short walks and just had a relaxing day. It was a fabulous trip. Great memories and quality family time.
