Jason and I are currently in Nevada hanging out at the parents house for a while on our way to Florida. We had some errands to run down in Vegas, so we figured if we drove that far we might as well explore while we were there.  Red Rock Canyon was recommended by a friend, so we decided to check it out! Unfortunately, so did everyone else.  It’s beautiful, of course, but there were a LOT of cars and other people hiking.  We found one hike that was probably not as scenic, but also not as popular, and decided to check it out.

I guess this is why it’s called red cliffs

Moon (not in focus dangit!) and a tree
Still trying to get a picture of the moon…

Love the different colors in the rocks here

Only a few other hikers

The trail back to the parking lot.

Overall, this park looks like it would be super awesome if there were about 100 less cars full of people also hiking. Maybe we just picked a bad day? or maybe it’s located within easy driving distance of a major city. Either way, it was a beautiful drive.
