Color Country Air Adventures

Small-plane scenic air tours over Zion, Kolob Canyons, Snow Canyon and Bryce Canyon, from Hurricane Municipal Airport.

Fixed-wing tours out of Hurricane Municipal Airport cover a much larger area than a helicopter can — Zion, Kolob Canyons, Snow Canyon and Bryce Canyon in a single flight. That is the fundamental trade-off in scenic aviation: an airplane gives range and economy, a helicopter gives low, slow and close.

The wider picture

The Colorado Plateau is unusually rewarding from the air because its landforms are horizontal: the layered sandstones and the canyons cut into them read clearly from above in a way mountains do not. Bryce Canyon in particular is easier to comprehend from the air than from its rim, being an eroded amphitheatre of rock spires rather than a canyon at all.

Worth reading alongside this: Kolob Canyons and a Bryce Canyon day trip. See every listing under Air Tours & Skydiving.

Frequently asked questions

What does the flight cover?

Zion, Kolob Canyons, Snow Canyon and Bryce Canyon — a much larger area than a helicopter can cover.

Why choose a plane over a helicopter?

An airplane gives range and economy; a helicopter gives low, slow and close. For seeing four landscapes in one flight, the airplane wins.
