Spent the night in Page, Arizona and after breakfast visited the Glen Canyon dam again. Stopped by last night but the visitors center was closed so we drove around Page a bit.
Trip Log
November 16, 2019
The primary purpose of this trip from Jeff's was here at Bryce Canyon. Alesa is a Tony Hillerman fan and has always wanted to see the red hoodoos and the park did not disappoint.

We left Kanab this morning headed to Bryce Canyon, a 79 mile trip, and were pleasantly surprised to pass through Red Canyon park. It was a beautiful preview of Bryce Canyon with its red cliffs and hoodoos (vertical pillars). Wish the red showed up better because it was very impressive.

Passed our hotel in Kanab early enough to head off to Zion. We entered the east gate and drove through the park to the visitors center at the main entrance just out of Springdale, Utah.

We have been to the Grand Canyon a number of times but never the north rim. So, this trip we had to stop. It is a 45 mile trip off the main road (89A) on Arizona route 67. It was a long drive through some burned out forest but it was well worth it and a check mark on a pseudo bucket list.

Headed north out of Flagstaff this morning. We crossed the Colorado River on the norther edge of the Navajo Reservation and stopped at the visitors center for the Navajo Bridge.
November 14, 2019
After a long day we drove out to Meteor Crater. We had passed it years ago but didn't stop and I regretted it.
November 14, 2019
While at the Sunset Crater visitors center someone told us about Walnut Canyon so we stopped on the way to Meteor Crater. It was another impressive sight with a very deep and steep canyon where there are cliff dwellings from over 800 years ago.

Headed to Meteor Crater later today but thought we would check out Sunset Crater where the astronauts trained for their trip to the moon. It was very impressive with the dormant volcano and the many old lava flows.

After a hearty breakfast at the hotel we visited the Flagstaff visitors center and then toured the "Old Town" as well as other parts of the city. We found ourselves in the northwest corner of the city so we headed out to the Arizona Snow Bowl ski resort (Elevation 9,200 ft.).
