    Really nice hiking trails from visitor center with great views and far fewer visitors than the nearby big national parks. Definitely worth a stop. Very helpful staff in visitor center.

    The drive to get here is long. Long I mean. And for your run of the mill view? Nothing exciting or something you can not get anywhere else.

    Great hiking and beautiful "red rocks" scenery! Perfect for anyone looking to get in touch with nature!
  • By Kara Flaherty
    Most beautiful hike I've ever been on. I couldn't help but take so many photos. This place doesn't have the words to Express its beauty, so photos were the next best option!
