Bryce Canyon is not really a canyon but it's a collection of giant natural amphitheaters along the eastern side of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. Bryce has geological structures called hoodoos that are formed from frost weathering and stream erosion of the river and lake bed sedimentary rocks. The red, orange, and white colors of the rocks gives the spectacular views. Bryce Canyon area was named after Ebenezer Bryce, who was a Mormon pioneers and lived in the area in 1874.
The park’s main road leads past the expansive Bryce Amphitheater that is a hoodoo-filled depression lying below the Rim Trail. The road has trails that overlooks at several different points that give different views. The overlooks are Sunrise Point, Sunset Point, Inspiration Point and Bryce Point.
