Shortly after 1900, visitors were coming to see the colorful geologic sights, and the first accommodations were built along the Paunsaugunt Plateau rim above Bryce's Canyon. By 1920 efforts were started to set aside these scenic wonders. In 1923 President Warren G. Harding proclaimed part of the area as Bryce Canyon National Monument under the Powell (now Dixie) National Forest. In 1924 legislation was passed to establish the area as Utah National Park, but provisions of this legislation were not met until 1928. Legislation was passed that year to change the name to the new park to Bryce Canyon National Park.
这是我在YOUTUBE上找的录像,给大家一个GENERAL的印象:
Water erodes rock mechanically and chemically. Scouring, abrading, and gullying occur when fast moving water scrapes its silt, gravel and rock debris against firmer bedrock. Slow moving or standing water enters minute rock pores and dissolves cements holding the rock together.
下面是我在BRYCE CANYON NATIONAL PARK照的一部分照片。我们因为每年都去那里,积累了好多PP,所以这次就没有照高清晰度的。有不清楚的PP,敬请大家原谅。
