Red Rock Canyon & Valley Of Fire!! The Halloween Replacement Event

Valley Of Fire is stunning!

Red Rock is equally so.

And we get to camp and then explore both.

Easy Camping!! Perfect for First-Timers
CLICK HERE to see from when we have gone before.

If you have not heard of either Valley Of Fire or Red Rock Conservation Area. . . that's because they are outside of California.

We have so much here that we often can overlook what is right next-door and still super close.

The other reason you may not of heard of them . . . Valley of Fire is a Nevada State Park and not a National Park. State Parks are assumed to not be as good as National Parks. And that's not true!!!

Red Rock is a National Conservation Area . . . again . . . assumed to not be as good since not designated as National Park . . . yet.

The reality is BOTH are stunning. And the designations make them more accessible.

• Valley Of Fire has "The Fire Wave." Similar "The Wave" in UT.

It also has

• Pastel Slot Canyon
• The Dome-lands (another slot there too)
• Rainbow Vista Trail
• Fire Canyon Overlook
• Petroglyph Canyon (yes!!! Petroglyphs!!)
• Atlatl Rock
• Arch Rock
• Pinnacles Trail (for the adventurous).

And we are likely to see some or all of these:

• Bighorn sheep
• Jackrabbits
• Coyotes
• Kit Foxes
• Lizards
• Iguanas
• Tortoises
