29 May, 2003, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, UT: After 3 days in and around Bryce the hot weather showed no sign of change, but we had to move on. Decending to Tropic, Henrieville and Escalante, we were cooking again, so we pointed toward another high elevation, Boulder Mountain. At the town of Boulder we took a side trip on the Burr Trail down to Long Canyon. Deer Creek Campground looked nice, but at only 5700', too hot. Here is a slot canyon that was delightfully cool.
