Better than the Petrified Forest, miles of beautiful red and white sandstone formations and a nice 1 1/2 hour drive from Las Vegas. This land was under water millions years ago. It is wonderful park, and my wife's favorite place to camp. Plan for an all-day visit, and take a picnic. After exploring the park, keep going east towards Lake Mead. This winding asphalt road will return you to LV.
