3 To Arizona


Hayduke Trail 3...We followed some more cool canyons to Bryce Canyon National Park, a beautiful series of pink and white 'hoodoos' or towers. From there we hiked south to pick up Buckskin Gulch and an area of fantastic swirling rock patterns called Coyote Buttes before arriving at the Utah/Arizona border. Check out our blog and 5 minute video too!
