Southwest Vacation Feb23 - Valley of Fire State Park
Fire Canyon, Rainbow Vista

We next drove to Fire Canyon overlook.
   
This is the view at the overlook.  Definately worth seeing!
   
 
   
That peak to the right is called Silica Dome.
   
The contrast between the white rock of Silica Dome and the red rock to the right is amazing.
   
Our next stop was Rainbow Vista which involved a one mile round trip hike.
   
On the trail to the Rainbow Vista.
   
Kids always love climbing on rocks.
   
The side view to the north.
   
This trail was easy to hike and well-marked.
   
Hiking through the red rock.
   
 
   
And there it is: the Rainbow Vista!
   
Worth the effort.
   
 
   
Some friendly people took this picture on the way back from the Rainbow Vista.
   
Hiking back to the trailhead.
   
I'm not sure where I took the remaining pictures but they sure are pretty.
