I came to the canyon seeking an escape
from the manmade strip of bright lights.
Decade old Scenic wildfire still fenced-off.
Vegas influenced exhibits at the visitors
center providing impressive vistas of
the northern Mojave Desert.
Hiking the rocks and desert floor
ending the day on the 13 mile Scenic Drive.
Collecting my winning in nature’s house
the freeway takes me back
to where the house rules,
I lose.

Red Rock Canyon (View along the 13-mile Scenic Loop Road) — Panoramas by kenne
There are many beautiful scenic views in the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. In September of 2006 a wildfire burned nearly 2,000 acres. The blaze, dubbed the Scenic Fire, burned rugged terrain inside the area’s 13-mile Scenic Loop Road, less than two miles west of the Red Rock Canyon visitors center.
I was able to get in some hiking while photographing this beautiful canyon in the Mojave Desert north of Las Vegas.
