Description
Bryce Canyon National Park in the last week of winter. This print is unusual in that it's not the traditional "snow-covered hoodoo" winter photo, but instead was shot after almost - but not quite - all of the snow had gone away for the year.
Bryce Canyon is a United States National Park located in the southwest part of the state of Utah. It has been called a "forest of stone" and "a cave without a ceiling" because of the enormous spires, or hoodoos, for which the park is best known. Technically not a canyon since it was not carved by a river, Bryce is actually a series of amphitheaters formed by ice and wind erosion.

Congratulations on your outstanding win in the "Greatest of All Time American National Parks" contest. With over 500 entries, it's clear your "Forest Of Stone" was considered excellent to place second. A brilliant win for a brilliant image!
