Verified traveler

enter the park from the east on H9 and you are straight onto it. We felt this area to the tunnel was the best. Very unusual rock formations.

Weeping Rock Trail

Magnificent geological formations are featured throughout this park. Notice the lush foliage hanging from the rocks in this area that is classified as a desert.
