Trail description

A loop in Bryce Canyon National Park from the Swamp Canyon trailhead down into Swamp Canyon among hoodoos and pines, along a short part of the Under-the-Rim Trail and back up the Sheep Creek connector. The trail lies between about 2,250 and 2,450 m, so the climb back to the rim feels harder than it looks.
