The Best is Yet to Come

Bryce Canyon, Utah

37 40.243 N 112 09.377 W, 7647 feet altitude

 

Riding in the car this morning I said, "The best is yet to come." She said, "How can anything be better than Zion?"

At Bryce, when she first saw those hoodoos, the beauty took her breath away. I said, "The best is yet to come." She said, "How can anything be better than Bryce?"

Tomorrow, and the next day we will drive highway 12 toward Capitol Reef Park. That is what I think is the best. I predict that Libby will say WOW at every turn and every hill crossing.

But any use of the word "best" is injudicious here in The West. There are countless "best" views. It is impossible to choose. It is also impossible to say you have seen them all. It's too vast.

  1. Arches Nat'l park near Moab is a wonderful area also, and well worth the time. However, even in mid week it will be crowded this time of year. Ron

  2. The Queens Garden / Navajo Loop trail was my favorite of all last summer. If you take it I suggest finishing up climbing out the Wall Street End for the least violence to the knees. Also make sure you see the little signs for the Queen's garden off shoot. Spectacular!
