Daytrip to Spring Mountain Ranch State Park

EP-P1040258Our friend Jim Herrington was in town for a vacation over over the Columbus Day holiday week. On Columbus Day we took him out to Spring Mountain Ranch in the Red Rock National Conservation Area below the Wilson Cliffs. Because this is a State Park, it was not affected by the government shutdown, as were many of the other hiking opportunities in this area. After a several hours of hiking and touring the historic ranch buildings on the property, we enjoyed a nice barbeque picnic under the shade of the trees in a large grove in front of the main ranch house.
