Red Cliff Rec Area



The Red Cliff Area is about 12 miles from our house.  We went there today to have a hike.  Many of the people from around here go there to cool off as there are several deep pools to swim in and small water falls.

There is a slot canyon that continues above swim pools, but it is necessary  to wade in the stream so I didn't explore any further.  
The rangers have cut stairs in the cliff to allow people to climb up above the falls.  Mom was too frightened to try the stairs so she missed the best part.
