Cedar Breaks






We drove up through Cedar Breaks in 2006 during our summer vacation. We stayed in St. George, Utah and made several side trips during our summer vacation that year. We stopped here on the way to Bryce Canyon Park. Aren't the colors pretty? It isn't as big as Bryce, but it is just as colorful and it is 10,000 feet high! Cedar Breaks isn't as crowded as Bryce NP (it isn't as large) and it was nice to visit without having to fight all the crowds! The elevation really got to me! I was easily winded! Or, maybe I'm just out of shape? NAH! It WAS the elevation! I bet this would be gorgeous in winter with snow hanging on the cliffs.

I love where I live now, but I do miss the spectacular scenery of the west (I'm from Arizona). These are fantastic photos.

All the photos on your posts are just beautiful! And, fun for me to see as I've never been to the Southwest.

Beautiful! It's so exotic compared to New England.

I love Cedar Breaks! You're so right, it's beautiful like Bryce but without the crowds.
