Red Rock Canyon

This was an awesome hiking trip even though we didn't have near enough time to explore all of it. We had a great time and got to enjoy the beautiful sunset over the mountains.

It really IS a beautiful place. I didn't have much time to explore it when I was there.

Where is Red Rock Canyon?

Colorado. Used to live there and spent some time in Red Rock. It is beautiful. One of those things that you cannot capture on film or in a painting. You just have to go see it for yourself.

Have to wait for Princess to clarify, but I think this is the Nevada Red Rock as opposed to the California or Colorado Red Rock. Red Rock Canyon is just outside Las Vegas.

See why I asked?

Like "devil's lake", there's one in almost every state!

We were in Nevada. It was a welcome reprieve from the bright lights and noise of Las Vegas believe me. I love the wide open spaces. My boyfriend had a conference in Vegas for work.

I'm not going to research that but "Devil Creek" runs through my backyard and "Devil Creek Reservoir" is just a little ways up the creek. So I call your statement good for Idaho.

I've never been to Colorado before and I have to admit that I regret this.. When I look at your picture the only thing I can see is the beauty of the nature. It's a great place and I envy you for the chance to have been there. Maybe I should plan a trip for next year!

One of my dreams is to drive to Colorado. I guess it's time to get going on that one. I'm adding Red Rock Canyon to my list of things I'd love to see. Thanks for sharing your beautiful pics.
