Cathedral Gorge Slot Canyon
Experience the majesty that is Cathedral Gorge! Located in a long, narrow valley where erosion has carved dramatic and unique patterns in the soft bentonite clay, it is a photographers’ dream. A number of walking trails provide great views of the Park. Children and adults alike love exploring the slot canyons. Moderate temperatures through the year make the Park at great place to camp. The slot canyons and cathedral-like formations of this ssmall gorge formed by erosion of a drying lake provides a nice detour. There's really not much in Southern Nevada, so I may as well check out the rare points of interest while on the ridiculously remote trek on the United States' 'Loneliest Road'.

We will arrive in the period from May 22nd till May 25th. We want to stay just for one night , but have no exact date.
