Who'd think there'd be all this natural beauty just outside of Vegas?
It's Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area -- and it's west of the city.
I stayed in the hotel of the same name a few years ago with the intent of exploring the loop drive -- unfortunately it was snowing the morning I wanted to drive it, and so I just made a brief jaunt along the perimeter.
Of course, time is always the operative word - didn't have a whole lot of it this time either -- we were there for my sister's landmark birthday.
But I was amazed at the beauty -- and the quiet.
