The Keystone Thrust. You are seeing how the colored sandstone layer has been sublimated under the gray granite in a tectonic clash of epic proportions. Like, millions of years epic. |
Close up of the thrust. The trail turns east here and drops down. Bear in mind that you'll have to come up again. |
The trip back down is as spectacular as the trip going up. |
Thanks, RD. Great photos. We love hiking the trails at Red Rock.
