Cedar Breaks National Monument

Yesterday Barbara, Toby and I took the short drive, east, to the Cedar Breaks National Monument. This is a small but beautiful park. We didn’t get to see a lot of the park because, unfortunately, most of the hiking trails are still covered with snow. It is comprised of the same rock formation, the Claron Formation, as Bryce Canyon National Park. It’s just a smaller, but in some cases a more colorful, version of Bryce Canyon. If you are ever in the vicinity of Cedar City, Utah take the short drive to Cedar Breaks, you won’t be disappointed. Take a look!

Notice all of the Dandelion’s in the foreground.
