This was just a quick overnighter to Bryce Canyon National Park, Red Canyon, and Zion National Park 600 miles over the two days. I had previously treated Bryce Canyon National Park (here:

https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=128820) but hadn't previously adequately treated Red Canyon. It is a canyon through which the road cuts up the same plateau that Bryce Canyon National Park is on. But, since the road goes through the canyon it is better for taking pictures with the car in it than Bryce Canyon National Park because all of its roads are along the edge of the plateau so it's hard to get any good pictures of the car and those formations.
Here's a map of the trip:

Here are some pictures:
On the way Friday night I noticed my back left taillight not working. I opened it up and wiggled the bulb and it came back on. The next night, however, when I filled up with gas about dark I noticed nothing was shining on the back end. No taillights nor license plate light. I knew that wasn't all loose bulbs and didn't want to tear into the wiring and/or switch so I was glad I had my stash of Harbor Freight hazard lights. I loaded them all on the back along with my reflectors and drove the last 150 miles with all of them flashing. I expect it was quite a sight approaching from the rear but no one hit into me when they were going 85 mph and I was going 65.
The six triangular lights are the Harbor Freight hazard lights that I had flashing. The others are reflectors.
It was 6° when we woke up in the morning at Bryce Canyon but Old Henry started up just fine.
