This is an amazing state park whether you are camping or just visiting. Full of picturesque rock formations and great hiking. The campground is nestled up right up against the rock formations so you can wake up and step out of your tent and enjoy the beauty first thing in the morning. The campsites also offer shaded tables so you can get out of the desert sun.

While we were there, we were lucky enough to see some of the resident big horn sheep. We were a little early for the catcus flowers, but there was still lots of beauty to see.

The state park offers tons of hiking trails to keep you busy. The nearby Lake Mead Recreation area is worth a trip too, or at least a drive through -- stunning hikes and pulloffs there too.
