Spring Vacations & Unique Travel Spots
City of Rocks National Reserve
This unique geologic area became a landmark in 1843 for California-bound emigrants. They left wagon ruts across the
landscape and their signatures in axle grease on Register Rock, Camp Rock and many others. A few granite pinnacles and
monoliths are in excess of sixty stories tall and 2.5 billion years old. The smooth granite faces offer exceptional rock
climbing. Today, over 500 climbing routes have been identified.
