πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: #BryceCanyon in #Utah isn’t actually a #canyon – it’s a series of natural amphitheaters holding the world’s largest collection of #hoodoos, rock spires up to 60m tall that began forming 50 million years ago. 🏜️

The #park sits at 2,400m elevation, hosts #endangered species like the Utah #prairiedog and #California #condor, and became an International Dark Sky Park in 2019. 🌌

Utah's Bryce Canyon isn’t a canyon at all, but a vast high plateau carved into numerous amphitheatres – and within these incredible rock formations there is life.
