So you haven't seen daylight in Las Vegas, between hours at a gaming table, watching Cirque de Soleil's LOVE and a few hours of sleep. When you're ready to re-acquaint yourself with the real world trying hiking or climbing in scenic Red Rock Canyon. (The hiking trails and climbing areas can be reached via the 13-mile scenic drive route -- for those who would rather just look.) Here are some photos of the dramatic scenery in Nevada's Red Rock Canyon. a mere 30 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip.
