Hiking – Red Rock Canyon Open Space

Hike some of my favorite trails in Red Rock Canyon open space. Our goal is to get to the intermittent waterfall in section 16 (it will be dry no doubt, but will still be fun.) We might grab some lunch afterwards if there is interest.

Spikes? Will we have snow before then? If we do, traction should be brought.

You might want poles for the area around the waterfall.
