North of Las Vegas is Valley of Fire State Park. Posts of UHHers prompted me to want to visit. The first two posts about my Las Vegas trip were of the old cabins and mountain sheep I encountered in this wonderful desert area.

This set is the first group of shots as I entered the park from the west entrance and explored the points of interest recommended by the park staff. I will post in the order that I followed the roads from the west to east entrance.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Another great set! Spent time in that part of the world in the late 1970s. Gambling holds nothing for me. Thanx for sharing!

Very nicely done, Mike. Looks like a desolate but beautiful area.

Thanks, Tim. I am not a gambler, but Las Vegas was a good base for my last trip.
