Kern county, CA has some interesting things to see. One of which is Red Rock Canyon. We discovered this by accident while driving up Hwy 14. The park is on the western edge of the El Paso Mountain range. It was on a trade route for thousands of years by Native Americans. It was again used by the survivors of the famous Death Valley trek by the Arcaned and Bennett familes with Illinois Jayhawkers. It was also a source of gold prospecting in the 1860's.
The rock formations are very unique and colorful. We enjoyed some very nice flower displays along with the colorful rock formations. If you are ever in the area, it is worth an hour or so to check out the formations and, if during the right time of year, the flowers. Hope you enjoy the photos.
