Hop back in the Jeep. Time to cruise by the dominating Keystone Thrust that towers over the park. This massive wall of rock is also called Wilson Cliffs and it rises over 3,000 feet above the valley. Spot any familiar shapes upon these sandstone mountains? Those are ancient pictographs drawn upon the surface by Native American tribes who once lived in this area. Today, the Keystone Thrust is a perfect backdrop for today’s adventure—and, of course, for a group picture or two.

Head north to reach the famous Calico Hills. Unearth the mystery of these vibrant sand dunes that preserve fossils from millions of years ago. What kind of creatures and plants once lived across this valley? These fossilized sand dunes seem to change hue from red and pink to orange and tan as the sun travels across the sky. Can you name all the colors of the Calico Hills? Across this vast expanse are dozens of tanks, or tinajas, holding pools of water that keeps its ecosystem lush and thriving.
