Travel End of theTrail

End of theTrail · 07:43 PM

We took a trail at the park and our trip ended here at this rugged landscape. The photo shows that not everything at Valley of Fire is red sandstone. We returned to the Jeep, happy with the photos we got.

you're right, it does have the same coloring, I couldn't remember where I had seen the yellows before. That's it.

I really need to get out and go here. So close and have never checked it out.

You've been to Iceland and never to Valley of Fire in Nevada. Vegas is only about 50 miles from VF

That is amazing, Bob! The variation of color is really astounding. What a strange landscape!

Colorado CJ · 10-16-2012, 09:25 AM

Very nice Bob! Do you always winter over in the Desert Southwest?

If you ever visit the old Anasazi sites, I'd like to see your take on them, photographically speaking of course

quite a different landscape than up your way Dave, as hot and dry as it gets here, it is amazing that anything grows

Looks like that might be on the road to Silica Dome? I only went perhaps 1/2 way (in a Celica...) , to where the chocolate and vanilla mixed :-)

Exactly Kyle, here is another photo of the area showing the mixture of sandstone colors.
