Valley of Fire 7--- Rock Formations


What do you make of this? A friend remarked this looked like an Indian carriage from the old days.

THE BEEHIVES. I read this is one of the most photograph formations in the park. Probably because it's next to the road.

Close up of beehives. I saturated this a bit.

This is not on any brochures or websites that I checked. It looked like a poodle to me.

Some of the rock formations require a bit of a hike, but with the rain and our companion is a little handicapped and could not walk for a long period of time, we decided not see all of them. I told my husband next time we go it would just be us so we can hike to where the other formations are located.

I am loving your valley of fire sequence. The last shot in this post looks like a ducks head. To me the first shot looks like a sci-fi vehicle of some kind.

Some excellent pics and the valley earned its name.

There is a lot of futuristic helmets for gigantic sci-fi aliens in your valley.
