Bryce Canyon is a National Park located in the southwestern part of the American state of Utah. Bryce Canyon is famous for its unique geological rock formations. Through the combined forces of freezing and thawing, the limestone and sandstone formations are slowly eroded to form the so-called hoodoos. The eroded tops create beautiful formations that look very mysterious in the sunlight. The sun creates shades of color in the rocks. The colors vary from pink to orange. It is part of the Grand Staircase.
The park gets its name from the Mormon pioneer Ebenezer Bryce, who lived at the foot of Bryce Canyon from 1875 to 1880. In 1924 the area was declared a national park. In the old days, Bryce Canyon was a nightmare for drovers; it was impossible to keep an overview of the herd in this area.
