This original hand-drawn pen and ink/watercolor story map showcases the stunning rock formations, towering walls, and unique desert wildlife of Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. The map measures 18" x 24" unframed.

Located in the Mojave Desert of Nevada, just a 30-minute drive from Las Vegas, this geological wonder attracts over 2 million visitors annually. Its striking features result from the Keystone Thrust, where older limestone layers are pushed atop younger sandstone, creating vibrantly striated hills and red canyons. While the park spans nearly 200,000 acres, the southern half offers most recreation opportunities, nestled between the La Madre Mountains.

Outdoor enthusiasts can explore various canyons and peaks, including Pine Creek Canyon, Turtlehead Peak, Calico Hills, and sites with historic petroglyphs left by indigenous tribes. Popular activities include rock climbing, biking, hiking, and horseback riding, with a scenic drive through the heart of the area.

This map also celebrates the diverse plants and wildlife found here, such as desert tortoises, bobcats, wild burros, red-tailed hawks, and a variety of desert flora like pinyon pines and mojave yucca.
