Spring in Red Rock Open Space

Rock-fall in Red Rock O. S.

It's an overcast, spring morning and, of course, there are deer.
On a bike ride, last week,  I passed, at least, 40 of the flora-munching domestiques. 

 The upper lake, once dry, is now a  muddy-shored body of water.

Then, coming into the climbing area, I notice a recent rock slide.  Similar to one that happened on the other side of the canyon last year.

Since I am on an amble I take one of the several side trails in the SE part of Red Rock.


 These are social/game trails that are untended, eroded, interesting and "illegal".

It isn't too far along that I come upon another dislodged chunker.


But, it's further down in this canyon where I find a big one.  About the size of a family van, this one is on the trail, which is on the right.


Ya gotta wonder when the geology is more active than the wildlife.
