Navajo Loop Trail, Bryce Canyon National Park, October 7, 2015 (Apple iPhone panorama)
Navajo Loop Trail, the most popular trail in Bryce Canyon National Park, takes visitors down into the Bryce Amphitheater. Rated as a moderate trail, it drops steeply2 from Sunset Point regardless of which direction the hiker takes. The last half of the 1.4 mile trail climbs back up to Sunset Point.

- Online, you’ll find several different numbers for the elevation change for this hike. The park service page says 550 feet, AllTrails has 521 feet, and Utah.com has 800 feet! Besides latitude and longitude, the GPS in my Pentax camera records the elevation for each photo. From a photo taken at the top and another down in the amphitheater, I calculated 450 feet.
