The main geological process that can be seen at Bryce canyon is erosion. With time, the wind and rain have eroded away layers of sandstone and limestone, leaving thin spires hundreds of feet tall. A canyon full of spires.

This image shows much of the entire canyon. A major area is full with these huge colorful spires.

This is another angle that shows much of the canyon.

This is a view of a portion of the wide canyon. The reds and oranges and whites are not a computer effect.

The two massive white columns looked like an enormous temple to us.

The spires are called hoodooes, and they come in various flavors. Here is a closeup of some white hoodooes with the canyon in the background.

Over time, erosion causes the hoodooes to become thinner and thinner. At some point of time, they will become too thin, and crash to their unfortunate death.

We walked down a trail that goes between hoodooes. You can see people zigzagging between twists and turns of the rugged path. The scale of the hoodooes can also be guaged here.

Having gone down to the level of the canyon itself, during the return we came to the topmost level of the hoodooes, which gave a different view.

There is also a natural bridge in the park. Click here to see more natural bridges.

During the afternoon, it started drizzling. My sister put on her raincoat in order to stand with some hoodooes in the background.
