Description
The ever changing landscape of the Mojave desert creates beautiful wilderness. This is the View of Calico Hills at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area near Las Vegas, Nevada, from Scenic Loop Drive. Around 66 million years ago, the Keystone Thrust Fault developed. The movement of the fault forced the older sedimentary rock over the younger red rocks, forming the varicolored landscape that can be seen in the mountain today.
