Description
This was our 1st stop in Bryce Canyon NP. From Rainbow Point, visitors can look northward and clearly see the Pink Cliffs out of which the Hoodoos have been sculpted. The cliffs curve around amphitheaters carved by the headward erosion of small streams and tributaries to the Paria River in times of flow. The entire Pink Cliffs of Bryce are but a single step in the much larger Grand Staircase. As first described by the geographer Clarence Dutton in 1870s, the Grand Staircase is so large that from any one vantage point most of it is hidden behind the curvature of the Earth. Yovimpa Point offers visitors a chance to see a large portion of the Grand Staircase.
This is the highest elevation of the park exceeding 9100 ft.
