When people think Vegas I bet 99% of the time they think "the Strip." Gambling aside there is a whole other world waiting for you in Red Rock Canyon. Gorgeous, beautiful, amazing are just 3 words to describe this national park. A friend who was living in Summerlin took us to Red Rock Canyon for some hiking and geocaching and it was perhaps one of my favorite trips to Vegas ever! So put the drink down for a bit and go check out this treasure! At the very least walk off some of that buffet food.
