Let’s Talk Red Rock Canyon & Valley of Fire State Park

Visiting in July. Gonna be quite hot. Was planning on doing these both each morning for a half day. Gonna do the scenic drive on both- couple hikes each.

Since we are not going to be there too long: what’s the best places to hike for each? Any can’t miss spots to hit up? Are there plenty of places to hop out of my car and take some cool pics?

Any and all info appreciated
