Description:
Popular and gorgeous, this well-named view offers a classic take on Bryce. Look for bristlecone pines on the empty hillsides, especially the young ones. Young bristlecone pines are distinct due to their tall, spindly stature and the fact that the entire length of their branches are sheathed in pine needles—hence the nickname "fox-tail pines." Inspiration Point is a great sunset spot to cap off a day spent exploring the Park. Note: watch out for the steep cliff edges! The railings are there for a reason.
