Zion for the day
This is a top pick! ... to Kanab for a second night, but that would have been a much longer journey, and the distance to Bryce tomorrow is similar from Cedar City as from Kanab. So Martin has forgone his stay at the Hollywood Hotel, and I have forgone the trip to Calvin T's. So ...

Looong day

Cedar Break National Monument

On the way to Zion National Park

Bryce Canyon National Park
Only one more night to stay in the Bates Motel, sorry Travelodge. Last night was definitely the coldest of the trip so far, there was actually a little bit of snow on the ground and our car when we woke up this morning. Also we could see that the ...
A Christmas wish
... make it to Cedar City just on dusk - yet another supposedly short drive turned into much more of an adventure by the holiday traffic. Cedar City is a much larger place than we expected. But it is still a country town. A town where the ...
White Christmas

Zion Canyon National Park
One night down, two more nights to go in the hotel from hell. Actually it wasn't that bad really, just more expensive and it looks like it might be condemned at any moment! Today was the next leg of our canyon-athon, ticking off Zion Canyon National ...
Bryce Canyon

Zion and before
... Zion National park this morning. Yet another gobsmackingly amazing site, and once again in brilliant sunshine (sorry). Tried to go to Cedar Breaks National Monument but it was still closed by snow - amazing since it was blazing hot lower down, but ...
Officially in UTAH!
As it was rest day we went through our usual routine for a rest day of finding an all you can eat pizza joint and getting fat. After the pizza we were all feeling both full and ill we headed off to the cinema. Another team meeting later and it was ...
Rain and chance of snow???
With the temperature just below 100 degrees the cyclists had the endearing prospect of a climb to 10500ft out of Cedar City. 'Luckily' the 6000ft climb was spread out over 20 miles and we were treated to some truly breathtaking views, the most amazing so ...
Across the Markagunt Plateau

Moment of truth
OK, So I'm supposed to spend the night here and head to Mt. Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon. Instead I get a text message from my friend in Vegas and realize that I'm only 173 miles from sin. After a day in Mormon Country, I decide to give in and ...
