The Red Cathedral - a photo on Flickriver

The Red Cathedral

            On the road to Badwater in Death Valley, there is a small signpost that points to Golden Canyon, and not much mention of this trail on the park literature or maps. We walked in through a narrow canyon lined with rock formations in hues of red, gold, brown and green and at the end of the canyon about 1.25 miles from the main road, you round a bend and are presented with the awe inspiring view of the "Red Cathedral".

Tried to get my husband to climb up there to provide some scale, but he declined - the red rock cliffs are probably 300-400 feet high.
