I've found some videos I haven't seen. It's a real treat. Both the Zion and Bryce are breathtaking. Thank you Glenn and Amy.

10k foot elevation made my asthma kick in just hearing about it! You did great, and what a payoff those view provided. Really enjoyed it!

It would be fascinating to feel what it must have been like years ago when people weren't used to seeing canyons and such unless they traveled extensively. I can't imagine!

Most people miss Cedar Breaks because it is usually closed because of the snow. It is usually opened from June to September and sometimes a snow storm may hit during the summer . It is usually cold and windy due to the elevation. I worked there once in the 80’s. The air is very thin and use to take me half an hour to walk a quarter of mile. There is a campground and great place to do star gazing . Joyce😊

I feel like we barely scratched the surface at Cedar Breaks as we usually try to cram so much into a short amount of time. Would love to go back sometime and camp with the stars. And yeah, the elevation can be no joke for some people. We've been to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon numerous times but when Glenn hit up the North Rim, he noticed the same effect you mentioned.

Cedar Breaks is a National Monument so it is a small park with two trails only. You get to go out and see the different views of the amphitheater . There is not much there . Love the bristlecone pine trees. Cedar Breaks was where I learned about these pine trees. Bristlecone pine trees are usually in high elevations and like limestone type soils. You find them in Nevada , Great Basin National Park. Another park that is not well known but very beautiful. I also worked at the south rim of the Grand Canyon. The North rim is 1,000 feet higher than the south rim so the air is a lot thinner. Joyce😊

Doesn't it though? It's kind of wild because Bryce is always pretty crowded.

We have a lot in common, asthma, fear of heights and a desire to conquer our fears. I wonder if you also have a fear of spiders? Loved the video.

Glenn doesn't have that much of a fear of spiders thankfully. He usually takes care of them while I'm somewhere across the room. 😅

The color of the formations here is slightly darker than that of Bryce. Here, they are more of a dark orange or even red, whereas in Bryce they are a light orange, almost yellow.

Southern Utah is so crowded, but Kolob Canyons of Zion and Cedar Breaks are not (yet) overcrowded. Short drive to the top of Brian Head, too.
@CactusAtlas2 жыл бұрын
Yeah... Some of the parks can become a bit overwhelming with the crowds and that's unfortunate but luckily there's tons of smaller ones and state parks that are just as awesome.

How about a visit to Pando, near Fish Lake in central Utah. Its a fascinating life form thousands of years old and it's a contender for Biggest Lifeform on Earth. Human activity is killing it.

Huffin and puffin, oxygen concentration is only 2/3rds. At sea level, it's 20.9% of the atmosphere, and 10,000 feet it's only 14%, and you can feel it.

Indeed. And with asthma one can really feel the effect.
