|

| The 23rd annual Bryce Canyon Winter Festival is Feb. 16-18 . There is plenty of snow this year for the archery biathlon event, 10K free technique cross-country ski race and snowshoe tours. A variety of other clinics also will be offered, as will ranger-guided snowshoe hikes and geology and astronomy presentations. |

I know that based on Bruce's photos there was a ton of snow down there a week and a half ago. Did it stick around? I am looking at going down there tomorrow morning from SLC and wanted to know about how much snow was still around. I love how the snow sticks to every layer on all the formations but I realize that if the sun has been out, most of that would melt and the only snow would be on the canyon floor. I am mostly interested in the photography of it but we would also snowshoe or hike (if hardpacked) both tomorrow and Sunday.
Does anyone have any recent conditions of Bryce right now?

| Was just at Bryce over the weekend. Plenty of snow still. 3+ feet of snow in the sun at the rim and up to my waist on the Peek-a-Boo trail at the bottom (not recommended for hiking right now). Ski trails around Ruby's were in great shape, but I do wish they'd learn that grooming in the middle of the day is the worst time to groom. |
