HIKE WALKTHROUGH: There will be two hikes. The group will spend some time exploring the first part of the park, where we actually see most of the Red Rock structures. This, is considered by some, to be the hike itself. It will be an fun moderate exploration that will include boulder hopping and rock scrambling. From here we will bid adieu to any departing hikers who will consider this their hike and will continue on to a more challenging hiking trail that will be further out on the park’s loop. Expect to do more distance and some rock scrambling.
