Bryce Canyon and the Grand
Canyon are national parks located
in the Southwestern United States
known for their stunning beauty and their
amazing geologic features. There are
many hiking opportunities at both parks,
including overnight hikes.
There are also several differences
between the two parks, however. Bryce
Canyon is located in Utah, while the
Grand Canyon is in Arizona. The Grand
Canyon was formed by river erosion,
while Bryce Canyon was formed by frost
and steam erosion. The Grand Canyon is
deeper and hosts more visitors than Bryce
Canyon.
