Last week, my husband and I took the 6 hour drive down to Las Vegas, Nevada to enjoy the food, wine, and sights of the desert for a few days. On a beautiful, warm afternoon, Red Rock Canyon was our destination. Unfortunately it was also the destination of hundreds of "spring break" visitors as well, roads were congested, parking lots overflowing; not my kind of enjoyment. As a result, we did not even hike or climb. We drove along the 13 mile road taking in the sights & scenery by car, while I took a few pictures, successfully not photographing any people.
Red Rock Canyon lies west of Las Vegas, Nevada. Its diverse rock formations are stunning.
Here are a few snapshots:
One of these days, My Mountain Green will venture back to Red Rocks to hike the trail leading into the box canyon in the above photo! Without all the people next time!
While we did not have the experience we hoped, the stunning beauty of God's creation always lifts the soul.
