Three slots loop with Fire wave



This hike in Valley of Fire starts at Parking lot #2 and goes east, then north to the wave. Then it takes the Wave wash west through one slot, crosses the road for two more slots. After the highest and last slot it turns south and works it way into the area south of White Dome area.


Bush Penstemon was blooming all over. This is like the same plant in Red Rock that blooms pink.




One of the many colorful rock areas.



Purple, yellow and white.



View toward the rock of Gibralta looking north. The wave is on the right.
