It was upgraded from a National Monument to the National Park category.

Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah has over 37000 acres and small
in comparison to Yellowstone at over 2 million acres.

The Bryce Canyon tourguide was excellent.
Excellent in describing the canyon, it's inhabitants,
plants, grasses and his sense of knowledge.
We all left with a great understanding of Bryce.
