Hoodoo Voodoo - Bryce Canyon

Words cannot begin to describe these bizarre formations.  They boggle the mind and the first glimpse into Bryce Canyon literally makes your jaw drop.  Each one is huge, some stretching over 50 feet straight up.  They are a combination of limestone, dolomite, mudstone and siltstone and have formed from water, ice and gravity.  They change shape and size constantly due to weather conditions.  Today I hiked among them.  The hike is called the Queen's Garden Navajo Loop hike in Bryce and many consider it to be one of the most beautiful three mile hikes in existence.  I would have to agree.
