We started the New Year off right with an easy hike in our home town of Hurricane, Utah. The Hurricane Cinder Knolls are part of the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve and there are a variety of trails crisscrossing the area. Whether you chose to hike up one of the Cinders Knolls or head for the Virgin River you will have some amazing views.
The Trail Head is located on 600 North |
Although it was a cloudy day, the temperature was perfect |
Colorful moss clinging to the lava rocks |
View of the Virgin River |
We are headed for the lava formations in the river below |
It didn't take Kent long to find a chunk of lava to climb |
We're looking forward to some good hikes this year |
We'll have to come back when the river isn't muddy |
We didn't see the windows until the hike out |
No flowers this time of year, just pretty rocks |
Back up on top with views of Sandstone Mountain |
We could just barely see the snow covered Pine Valley Mountains trying to peek through the clouds |
