Basic Information

Bryce Canyon National Park sits at an elevation of about 9,000 feet, so daily high and low temperatures can vary by 50 degrees except during summertime. Snowfall is common between October and May, when temperatures drop below freezing nearly every night. The snowiest months are December to February, but heavy snowfall isn't uncommon in March and April. Lightning can be a safety threat when summer storms hit in July and August; summer high temperatures tend to be in the 60s and 70s in June and September and in the 70s and 80s in July and August.
