Keep Red Rock Rural

Save Red Rock is always on the lookout for threats to the Rural character of the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Check out the latest in our efforts.
Learn More

Keep Red Rock Safe

The founders of Save Red Rock started their advocacy more than 20 years ago to honor a friend of theirs who was struck and killed in a cycling accident. The grassroots effort to ensure that hikers, bikers, climbers and nature-lovers have a safe place to visit has since turned into a movement. Safety threats continue, and SRR works closely with BLM, Metro, NDOT and more to improve the safety of this special place.
Learn More

Keep Red Rock Healthy

A National Conservation Area is protected by Congress for its cultural, scientific, ecological and recreational value. Red Rock Canyon was the first designated NCA in the country, and it’s the most-visited one as well. SRR continually works with BLM, Desert Research Institute and other conservation organizations to identify and mitigate the effects of climate change on the land and wildlife. Whether through a clean up, restoration project, public education, etc. we promote and execute safe, effective strategies for sustaining this delicate natural environment for all to enjoy.
Keep Red Rock Healthy

Shop

Save Red Rock is continuing its local art partnership with three Nevada-based artists — Tracy P. Martin, Lina Vasquez, and Jonathan Dixon – to raise funds to help preserve the beauty and serenity of Red Rock Canyon. We've developed unique, limited-edition merchandise just in time for the holidays! Proceeds from each purchase helps us raise money to preserve and protect the safety, sustainability and serenity of Red Rock Canyon NCA.

Today, on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Save Red Rock honors Dr. King's legacy of service, equality, and collective action. His vision inspires us to work together to ensure that the beauty and benefits of our public lands, like Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, are accessible and preserved for everyone.

If you are out enjoying the beauty of our public lands today, let's honor the spirit of collective action by being responsible stewards:

Safety First:
• Stay on marked trails to protect fragile desert ecosystems.
• Carry plenty of water - the desert is deceptive, and dehydration is a real risk.
• Tell someone your plan and expected return time.
• Check the weather before you head out.

Leave No Trace:
• Pack out everything you pack in - this includes all trash, food scraps, and pet waste.
• Respect wildlife and never feed the animals.
• Leave what you find - rocks, plants, and cultural artifacts belong in the canyon.

Conservation is a collective action, requiring unity and purpose. Visit our website at SaveRedRock.com to learn more ways to support our conservation efforts!

Red Rock Canyon is home to some of Nevada’s most unique wildlife, each playing a vital role in the desert ecosystem. 🌿🦅

🦉 Burrowing Owls – These tiny, ground-dwelling owls help control insect and rodent populations.
🦊 Kit Foxes – The smallest fox species in North America, they are expert desert survivors!
🐏 Desert Bighorn Sheep – Masters of the rocky terrain, they are Nevada’s official state animal!
🐢 Desert Tortoises – A keystone species, these slow-moving creatures dig burrows that provide shelter for other animals. But their habitat is shrinking due to urban expansion and development. Protecting Red Rock means protecting the animals that call it home.

📢 What you can do:
Drive carefully - watch for wildlife crossing the roads.
Stay on trails to avoid disturbing habitats.
Support conservation efforts - every voice matters! Visit our website at SaveRedRock.com to learn more ways to get involved today!

Looking Back at the Stars: Red Rock Canyon Star Parties in 2025! ✨🔭

What an incredible year for community and the cosmos! In 2025, the Star Party series – a collaboration between Save Red Rock, the Las Vegas Astronomical Society, and Red Rock Canyon NCA – had a stellar impact:

• 1,200+ People Hosted: Over a thousand members of our community gathered under the dark skies of Red Rock Canyon.
• Expert Presentations: Attendees enjoyed fascinating presentations from multiple experts in the fields of astronomy and light pollution.
• Cosmic Views: Thanks to multiple telescopes at each event, everyone had the opportunity to gaze at astronomical marvels and learn more about our galaxy.
• Giving Back: We proudly fundraised for the purchase of a new telescope, which was gifted by our partner Brett Torino Foundation to Red Rock Canyon NCA to enhance future educational programming!

These events are a vital part of our effort to achieve an Urban Night Sky Place designation for Red Rock Canyon. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped us learn, look up, and commit to protecting our dark skies!

It’s winter break! With many families enjoying time off, now is the perfect time to explore the breathtaking beauty of Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. The cool, crisp air and stunning desert views make for an unforgettable outdoor adventure!

While the temperatures are mild compared to summer, desert weather can change fast. Here are a few essential tips to keep your winter hikes safe and enjoyable:

Layer Up: 🧤🧥 Wear multiple layers of clothing that you can easily add or remove. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer and include a waterproof/windproof outer layer.

Check the Weather & Road Conditions: ☁️🛣️ Always know the forecast before you go, especially for ice, wind, or snow at higher elevations. Check the Red Rock Scenic Drive hours, as they change with the season.

Stay Hydrated: 💧 Even in cold weather, your body needs plenty of water. Bring more than you think you’ll need!

Wear Sun Protection: ☀️🕶️ The sun’s rays are still strong, even when it`s chilly. Wear sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat.

Tell Someone: 📱🗺️ Let a friend or family member know your exact route and expected return time.

Enjoy your time in the canyon, and remember to always Leave No Trace!

📸 Find the NEW Red Rock Canyon Photo Spot!

Great news! Taking photos with the iconic Red Rock Canyon NCA sign is now safer and easier than ever!

The popular "Red Rock Canyon Marker North" has been relocated as part of Phase 1 of the Red Rock Legacy Trail Project, creating a dedicated paved parking lot for visitors. This safety-focused initiative, championed by Save Red Rock, moves the sign off the highway so you can park safely and snap your pictures without worrying about traffic.

📍 Where to find the relocated sign:
The marker is on the north side of State Route 159 (Red Rock Canyon Road), approximately 1.7 miles west of the intersection at West Charleston Boulevard and Sky Vista Drive.

Come enjoy this safer visitor experience! We`re thrilled that the first phase of the Red Rock Legacy Trail is already prioritizing safety for everyone who loves Red Rock Canyon. ❤️

Have you seen wild burros in Red Rock Canyon? 👀

Wild burros, a resilient part of the Red Rock Canyon landscape, are descendants of animals brought by Spanish settlers in the 1500s and later abandoned by 19th-century prospectors. Adapted to the desert, they thrive in the area and are often seen near State Route 159 and Blue Diamond village.

Celebrate our furry neighbors with limited-edition products featuring original artwork, "Desert Guardians," by local modern realism painter Lina Vasquez. These one-of-a-kind gifts – including a snow globe, notebook, and ornament – helps us to preserve and protect Red Rock Canyon NCA`s safety, sustainability, and serenity.

Las Vegas-based modern realism painter Lina Vasquez draws inspiration from the American Southwest`s desert landscapes and vibrant skies. Her oil paintings capture the shifting light, dramatic colors, and organic textures of this rugged environment, conveying both its vastness and intimacy. Originally from Lithuania, she inherited her careful observation of light from her grandfather.

Have you seen wild burros in Red Rock Canyon? 👀

Wild burros, a resilient part of the Red Rock Canyon landscape, are descendants of animals brought by Spanish settlers in the 1500s and later abandoned by 19th-century prospectors. Adapted to the desert, they thrive in the area and are often seen near State Route 159 and Blue Diamond village.

Celebrate our furry neighbors with limited-edition products featuring original artwork, "Desert Guardians," by local modern realism painter Lina Vasquez. These one-of-a-kind gifts – including a snow globe, notebook, and ornament – helps us to preserve and protect Red Rock Canyon NCA's safety, sustainability, and serenity.

Originally from Lithuania, she inherited her careful observation of light from her grandfather.
