Valley Of Fire - Nevada

Wednesday We have arrived at Valley of Fire S.P. amid amazing rock formations, we intend to explore more tomorrow.
Thursday
We took our lunch and set out to explore this lovely State Park. Most of the forck formations are of sedimentary rocks and there are many fascinating layer effects, The stratigraphy has been determined by both water born and wind born elements, we loved the colour banding and erosion features, from water, chemical and wind erosion.
we also enjoyed seeing the variety of plants and animals found in the desert.
I have made a small video which is on Youtube.
If you watch it, don't forget to switch on sound and switchit to full screen.
