Moss in the desert? But of course! This area remains, dark, cool and damp enough to maintain a moss garden. Hence, it is called the Mossy Caves.

As I was out hunting for better photo angles, I came across this painter. He was painting some of the hoodoos at Bryce to enter in a contest of painting Utah's national parks. His name is Mark Lemon. Check out his site (www.marklemonfineart.com), he's got some nice stuff on there.

This section was called Wall Street. Gnarly twists and turns down to the bottom...I'm dreaming of a snowboard run.

One of the cabins we stayed at was surrounded by farmland. We met the owner of the cabins who tended the land, along with many other animals. This man lived with horses, mule, donkey, sheep, chickens, peacocks, llamas, buffalo, and a dog. Though they bred freely, none of them he used for food, and rarely did he sell any of them. Just an animal lover, I guess.

A Steller's Blue Jay hopped right up to us on the trail. Interesting compliment to the orange rock landscape.
