Finally, not far from Bryce Canyon, snowfall inspired me to go discover it in his winter coat…
 
 
1. Start on Christmas Day. Warmer than the night before but snow and blizzard formed small snowdrifts while rocking me all night long… 😉
 

 
 
2. Small lake along a country road, between two flurries…
 

 
 
3. It is large enough to not be completely frozen yet. I saw two great eagles, probably on the lookout for some fish to eat.
 

 
 
4. Arriving near Bryce, I first discovered a secondary cayon, less known but beautiful too.
 

 
 
5. It was partly dug by the water of an irrigation canal built upstream by Mormons a hundred years ago.
 

 
 
6. Triple arch on an edge.
 

 
 
7. A small waterfall almost completely frozen…
 

 
 
8. I arrived on the heights of Bryce Canyon between scathing snow showers and blue sky. It was 15F and for once, there wasn’t many people there, only some Japaneses and Hindous.
 

 
 
9. While I go down into it, snow showers give a wintry atmosphere…
 

 
 
10. Then shower fades…
 

 
 
11. The white-red contrasts give a very different face of this exceptional place…
 

 
 
12. The next night was one of the colder than VivaLaVida has had to endure: -10F to her thermometer. Olive oil even froze in the closet… 😉
 

 
 
13. Wind creates clouds that cause snowing on the mountains while the rest of the sky his quite blue.
 

 
 
14. I went hiking in an annex canyon of Red Canyon, not far from Bryce and less known but also interesting to me.
 

 
 
15. Hoodoos are everywhere.
 

 
 
16. I even find that unnamed arch.
 

 
 
17. Almost ten inches powder snow fell in this wilderness.
 

 
 
18. And he still snosw under showers while the wind blows almost as a storm.
 

 
 
19. Going down to VLV in late afternoon.
 

 
 
20. That road conditions we had at almost 10,000 feet above sea level, near Cedar Break inaccessible due to snow.
 

 
 
21. Down to warmer altitudes, an example of bright Christmas decoration that you Americans love. 😉
 

 
 
Change of scenery to come in the next update… 😉
