Hoodoos are those sandstone spires you see a lot in Southern Utah, especially at Bryce Canyon. Erosion has carved a unique rock formation that isn’t easily duplicated. They had just received 8 inches of fresh powder so I had to check it out last week. By the way, it was one degree (F)

A quick trip to Bryce Canyon to capture snow-covered hoodoos ended in disappointment as the foggy conditions obscured the canyon of hoodoos below but left 4-5 inched of fresh snow above the rim. I guess it’s best to visit just after the storm has passed which I normally do. See past image.

I actually got up at 4:45am to make the 2 hour drive to Bryce Canyon National Park in time for sunrise. (Not a morning person). A fresh blanket of snow was a motivation for me.
