Sunrise Hiking

A sunrise hike of Bryce Canyon National Park from Sunrise Point to Sunset Point along the Queens Garden and Navajo Loop trails.

It's 5am and I lie in bed contemplating sleep. It would be so nice, but it seems to be avoiding me. To my right, Chris stirs.⁠ "Can't sleep?"⁠ Part of it is the sleeping. ⁠Part of it is the opportunity.⁠ We are parked right outside of Bryce National Park. The sun will be coming up in an hour or so. We have time to get there to see the sunrise. But it means facing the below freezing temperatures outside of our cozy bed. Even so, this very well may be a once in a lifetime opportunity.⁠ We are both tired, but even Chris doesn't grumble as we layer on ski pants, heavy coats, and dash for the truck cab. ⁠
