Description

Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...

The two most popular routes that descend into the shapely formations of Bryce Canyon National Park are the Navajo Loop Trail and the Queens Garden Trail.
The most expansive views are near the top of the Queens Garden Trail, over a wide area of hoodoos to the north, extending towards Fairyland Canyon, and of closer formations to the south. The path descends rather steeply down a sloping ridgeline, passing several nice groups of hoodoos on the right, and reaches a promontory at the end of the ridge, soon after which is a junction with a horse trail on the left, used to bypass several narrower sections ahead. Next, the main trail passes through a short, artificial tunnel, zig zags down a hillside giving good views of a pinnacle-filled ravine, then encounters a second tunnel, a short level stretch, a third tunnel, and finally a junction, with a very short spur trail to a viewpoint of Queens Garden. The garden is a beautiful semi-circular ridge of eroded formations, high above the viewing area, formed of many thin spires colored yellow, brown, orange and pink, crossed by a whitish band lower down. At the center is a swirling, elevated formation thought to resemble Queen Victoria.
