Red Rock Canyon Climb

Red Rock Canyon is Nevada's first National Conservation Area.  Just drive west on Charleston, about 17 miles from the Las Vegas Boulevard, until you reach the 13 mile scenic drive.  It has more than 30 miles of hiking trails, rock climbing, mountain biking, and a visitor center with exhibit rooms and book store.  This video is from our hike at Calico where we climbed all the way to the top with just minor cuts and bruises.  It is pretty difficult in some areas that require jumping across rocks, climbing near vertical walls, and dropping down 6 feet ledges.  If you enjoy hiking and climbing, or just nature in general, you definitely have to visit Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas!
