Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God shines forth. Psalm 50:2

Pictures can not express the awesome sites we saw

Bryce Canyon sunrise to......
13 september 2019, Förenta staterna ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
Got up this morning it was 36 degrees. Brrrrrr

Bryce Canyon National Park, a sprawling reserve in southern Utah, is known for crimson-colored hoodoos, which are spire-shaped rock formations.

The view to the northeast from Sunrise Point captures Boat Mesa and the Sinking Ship, set against the stark Pink Cliffs of the Aquarius Plateau. Boat Mesa, capped by the resistant rock called "The Conglomerate at Boat Mesa," rises above the hoodoos of Fairyland Canyon to an elevation of 8073 feet.
Arches National Park lies north of Moab in the state of Utah. Bordered by the Colorado River in the southeast, it’s known as the site of more than 2,000 natural sandstone arches, such as the massive, red-hued Delicate Arch in the east. Läs mer

.... sunset / moonrise in Bryce Canyon
13 september 2019, Förenta staterna ⋅ 🌙 63 °F
He loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. Psalms 33:5

A hoodoo is a tall, thin spire of rock that protrudes from the bottom of an arid drainage basin or badland. Hoodoos typically consist of relatively soft rock topped by harder, less easily eroded stone that protects each column from the elements. They generally form within sedimentary rock and volcanic rock formations.
