Cathedral Gorge State Park is in Nevada but close to the Utah border. It’s in a remote location and gets little visitation but it is grand nonetheless. These Bentonite spires were formed through erosion over millions of years and seems prehistoric. I kept waiting for a Neanderthal to appear.
Never heard of it? It is an area northeast of Las Vegas that President Obama set aside in 2016. Trump wants to shrink it. It comprises some 300,000 acres of pure and unadulterated desert landscape and is home to Desert Bighorn Sheep and Mountain Lions. I loved the remoteness. We camped about 20 miles from the nearest human. Little Finland is an area within the monument that showcases grotesque forms of weathered sandstone. I plan to return soon….
