After taking a look at Hoover Dam from the O’Callaghan-Tillman Bridge, I traveled to Red Rock Canyon and Spring Mountain Ranch State Park. Lots of rocky desert hikes, some surprising lush areas, and even a few burros! Ah…! 🙂

Hoover Dam from the O’Callaghan-Tillman Bridge

What a story these rocks tell!

Me and my red rocks!

I love the way colors and shadows add texture to photos.

Even I didn’t have trouble finding the trail with all of the cairns!

Top of the trail looking down on Las Vegas (to the left). These boots are doing a lot of work this trip!

Drew on the wall again…hahaha!

Greenery from Pine Creek Canyon trail!

Spring Mountain Ranch State Park – has a storied history with multiple owners, including Howard Hughes.

Burros!
