recorded april 10, 2017

the red rock canyon national conservation area is located 15 miles west of las vegas. the conservation area showcases a set of large red rock formations: a set of sandstone peaks and walls called the keystone thrust. the walls are up to 3,000 feet high, making them a popular hiking and rock climbing destination. the highest point is la madre mountain, at 8,154 feet. in this video i drive the scenic, 13-mile long, one-way loop road through the park on a busy spring day.
