Cycling Red Canyon, Near Panguitch, Utah
We cycled Red Canyon, near Panguitch, Utah. Red Canyon is on the road (highway 12) heading east from highway 89 toward Bryce Canyon. It is scenic, and has an excellent, paved, bicycle path.
We did this trip in November, and was fairly cold, in the 40-degree Fahrenheit range. We saw ice in shadowed areas, and in the dry wash. I liked it, but it was a bit cold for Malcolm.

We turned around here, and coasted back down this very-scenic bike path. It's a moderately-strenuous, 1000-foot climb from the parking area where we started, to here.
