Rock Hound & Spring Canyon State Parks

Today we toured these two co-lated, unique state parks. Here one can freely collect up to 15 pounds of rocks. Rock Hound has excellent hiking trails, nature programs, and other outdoor activities. Spring Canyon Park is actually part of Rock Hound and provides a scenic driving experience with many picnic shelters and photo opportunites. Our big excitment for the day was when we were stopped by both the police and US Border Patrol wanting to know if we had seen a dangerous, armed, illegal immigrant while we were up in the mountains. We couldn't help them.
