Many hollywood films have been shot here. North Peak, Bridge, Rainbow and Wilson create a giant colored wall that faces Las Vegas. In none of these mountains is this clearer than in Wilson. Most of the mountain is composed of yellow sandstone with streaks of red sandtone. The above photo was taken while the desert was in bloom.
Many people find the annual Spring bloom to be their favorite time in the desert.
The small white flowers on the ground are white dune prim roses. Red Rocks has a countless number of these cacti. The above photo was taken by Ryan Dwyer. While it may be shared, credit must be given to the photographer.
