Preserving Our Beautiful Canyon
Wow, what a year for Save Red Rock in 2025! We had a blast connecting with thousands of people in our community to talk about conservation and how to protect Red Rock Canyon. ❤️
We hosted some fantastic events, like our three Star Parties, which brought over 1,000 people out under the dark skies. We also got our hands dirty with 100 volunteers at our Public Lands Day event in Lovell Canyon, picking up trash, fixing fences, and doing some essential trail restoration. Plus, our World Recycling Day FUNDrive was a huge success, raising money and keeping almost 3,500 lbs of goods out of landfills.
We also got out to a ton of other events, from the Refuge Blackout Film Fest and Climb Wild to the Tortoise Trot and the Southern Nevada Pedal Fest/Chainsmoker Mountain Bike Race. Everywhere we went, we were spreading the word about being good stewards of Red Rock.
The bottom line? All these efforts have created a more informed, engaged, and active community of Red Rock lovers!
We want to keep this momentum going strong in 2026! Will you help us spread the word?

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!

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. Today, Lina blends traditional landscape techniques with a contemporary vision, portraying the desert as an emotional, living presence. Her modern realist compositions translate the beauty of the desert into timeless work that complements modern spaces.

Many Red Rock plants—like yucca and Joshua trees—were used by Indigenous communities for food, tools, and medicine. The canyon is shaped by thousands of years of Native knowledge. This Native American Heritage Month, we honor the original caretakers of Red Rock Canyon and the deep cultural roots that still guide this landscape today.
We challenge you to take action: • Learn something new about Red Rock’s Indigenous history • Share it • Support conservation efforts that protect this land
Honor the past. Protect the future.

This Thanksgiving, we have a lot to be thankful for…
✅ Red Rock Canyon celebrated its 35th birthday as a National Conservation Area.
✅ Over 100 volunteers signed up to attend our Lovell Canyon Volunteer Day, restoring trails and signage, removing invasive vegetation, repairing fences, collecting litter, and more!
✅ Your voices – twice – helped prevent the sell off of public lands by members of congress.
✅ The Red Rock Legacy Trail, after 20 years of ongoing effort, broke ground on Phase 1 in July.
✅ Red Rock Canyon NCA and Save Red Rock launched a series of Star Parties, and are on track to achieve an Urban Night Sky Place designation for Red Rock Canyon by Dark Sky International.
✅ We recycled over 3,495 lbs. of clothing, books, and used goods and 50 pieces of furniture and other large items for our Savers FUNDrive for World Recycling Day.
✅ We attended events with The Refuge Climbing Gym, Red Rock Canyon NCA, Friends of Red Rock Tortoise Trot, UltraX Nevada, Southern Nevada Pedal Fest, and Chainsmoker Mountain Bike Race.
While Red Rock Canyon has been protected for the last 35 years, another 35 years is not guaranteed. Join in or donate today to make sure this sacred landscape is protected.
Thank you for making a difference with your continued support. 🌍❤️
Warm wishes this Thanksgiving from Save Red Rock! 🦃

Since 2005, Save Red Rock has been dedicated to making this dream a reality: a multi-use paved path where both cyclists and pedestrians can safely enjoy the beauty of Red Rock Canyon away from traffic.
📸 A significant improvement is the relocation of the iconic Red Rock Canyon NCA sign, allowing visitors to safely park and take pictures away from the traffic on SR-159.
A special thank you to all the workers whose hard work every day has made this possible! ❤️
