By Sunday we'd wrapped up the canyons, but we still had plenty of driving and photography left. We got moving early to be in Cathedral Valley for sunrise. It was a different pace from three days of ropes and canyon exits.

From there we went by Fish Lake, where a nap was very much in order, then carried on to Bryce Canyon for sunset and night photos. This post is going to be mostly photographs once I've sorted the set. I still need to backfill the exact stops and timing, rather than pretend I remember every turn of that drive.
