The plaque says, "This canyon is smaller, more intimate, than the vast bowls farther south along the rim. Though erosion started later here, Fairyland may eventually resemble Bryce Amphitheater.
After a store you may hear this amphitheater being enlarged: listen for water trickling downslope and pebbles clattering to the base of the cliff. Though carpool preserves the pinnacles for a while, they eventually tumble. New hoodoos will appear where you are standing."
