All I can say is simply breathtaking natural beauty. An easy one day round trip from the Vegas area, and worth the ride. I included a few shots with people in it so that you can get a sense of scale of these several thousand feet high monoliths.

Thank you for viewing and your kind comments Leona...you may find it a bit of a ride from Tucson, but it'll be worth the ride

Holy redrock, Batman! This reminds me so much of Sedona, AZ! Absolutely breathtaking. If the photos are THIS good, being there must be heartstopping. Thanks for sharing these. I'm jealous!!!
