I Hiked the Hoodoos Hiking is great exercise and Bryce Canyon's "I Hiked the Hoodoos!" program is not just hiking, it's also a scavenger hunt with a special reward! 1. Hike a minimum of 3 mi / 4.8 km, or find at least 3 benchmarks and complete steps 2 through 4 below. 2. Each individual must have either a pencil rubbing of the benchmark (see Jr. Ranger Book) or a"selfie"with the benchmark. 3. Only special "I Hiked the Hoodoos" benchmarks qualify for the reward. 4. Rewards are available at the Visitor Center! See your park newspaper or Junior Ranger book for more information. Benchmarks are located on Mossy Cave, Rim Trail, Tower Bridge, Queen's Garden, Navajo Loop, Peekaboo Loop, Sheep Creek, and the Bristlecone Loop trails.

Tips
A good half-day alternative if the Navajo Loop is too busy. The China Wall is just past the bridge and worth the extra few minutes.
