Fairyland Loop in Bryce National Park

Our second hike of the day was the Fairyland Loop in Bryce Canyon National Park.  From where we parked, this was a 9 mile hike (8 miles from the trailhead) With an elevation loss/gain of about 800 ft. The trail can be accessed from either Fairyland Point or from near Bryce Canyon Lodge (where we started). The morning light lit up the hoodoos along the canyon walls.

This is a gorgeous trail that wanders down into Campbell Canyon

There are many interesting features all along this trail.
