City of Rocks State Park

Our next stop was at City of Rocks State park, a short distance from Silver City, NM. It is an interesting geologic formation of towering pillars of stone formed after a massive volcano millions of years ago. Erosion over time left the “City” of rocks and you can wander amongst the boulder pathways behind the campsites. David also did a hike to the top of a plateau near the formation.

  1. You did not go to the top? Perhaps you wanted to sit in the campsite and take in all the scenery
