Road Adventure
Vortex of Ancient Valley & Valley of Fire Off Road Hummer Adventure
Valley of Fire and Petrified Wood Hunt
This Tour is One Hour North of Las Vegas
Spiraling energy, perhaps magnetic, seems to come out of the rugged terrain in this valley of strange geological formations…a place created more than 400 million years ago during earth’s violent beginning.
You’ll marvel at the results of tectonic upheavals…faults,foldings and thrusts of earths crust. Wind, water and fire changed the surface over the next 50 million years.
We cannot explain the unusual behavior of magnetic compass needles here. It may have something to do with iron and other mineral deposits that appear in brilliant colors in the towering cliffs.
One feels high realms of awareness, an up-lifting of spirit and, energized during a visit to the valley. Some say this positive effect can last for days.
The valley was a magical and mystical place to ancient people. They did not live here, only visited to pay respect to the powers that created the awesome landscape. They believed the colorful stone that resembles wood logs ( in a part of the desert where there are no trees) were gifts from their gods. Today it is called petrified wood. We’ll show you where it has been hidden since theTriassic Period, for 240 million years. You may keep a piece as a souvenir.
We do not claim the Vortex energy in the Ancient Valley will help you loose unwanted weight or reduce your age or add a carat to your diamond ring. But, we do promise that a visit here in the clean freash air, in unbelievable peace and quite will help you feel better…refreshed physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Comfortable travel in a powerful H2 Hummer to breathtaking Valley Of Fire State Park. Here is an extraordinary display of sandstone created by water, wind and time. Your guide will share knowledge of the Mojave Desert, its plants and animals surviving in this rugged environment while we point out famous and beautiful sculpted shapes in the Parks flaming red petrified sand dunes.
Then, a brief but thrilling off road adventure into the ANCIENT VALLY: a wonderland of mysterious rock formations created by earth movement over 500 million years. We explore and search for petrified wood, the remains of fossilized tress hidden in this strange part of the desert. You may keep a piece of petrified wood as a souvenir. We are the only tour company licensed to take you on this amazing journey back through geological history.
Later we can relax at the Moapa-Paiute Indian Nation Travel Plaza. If you wish there is time to shop for Native American handicraft.
