Having something so naturally majestic this close to Vegas is surreal. It reminds me of mini Capital Reef, one of my favorite places on the planet.
We didn't have enough time to fully discover the hidden treasures, but did see some tortoises and a rattler. The fire recovery path off of #16 is a cool, private loop that takes you past some springs.
It was painfully hot, even in early spring, but it is the desert, so not really a surprise, I just felt like I might evaporate.
