Lake Mead Rock Formations Desecrated By Men In Viral Video

Anyone living in Southern Nevada knows how beautiful and majestic our land can be. From Valley of Fire to Red Rock, there is so much beauty and grandeur. Well, two men obviously didn't get the memo. They were caught on camera destroying Lake Mead rock formations and now the feds would like a word.

The video captures these two dopes at Lake Mead National Recreation Area purposefully and wantonly pushed massive boulders off of cliffs at the Redstone Dunes Trail. According to the National Park Service, the incident took place on Sunday, April 7th. Unfortunately and obviously, the flung rocks smashed to the ground after taking approximately 140 million years to be formed. There is no fixing it.

There are sadly not enough park rangers on the planet to keep a close eye on the magnificent lands the United States Of America has to offer. Plus there is no easy way to get them on the phone when you're in the middle of nowhere. No reception.

So all the National Park Service can go off of is video after the fact. They are hoping anyone that knows who these two lummoxes are will drop an anonymous dime and let them know.

If you are going to commit ridiculously rude crimes like the destruction of Lake Mead rock formations, you deserve federal attention. That's exactly what they are getting.

Lake Mead National Recreation Area PIO John Haynes told Fox 5 that the men could face anywhere from a $5000 fine to six months in prison, and even felony charges!

In case you were wondering, it breaks out to around 23,333,333 years of formation per month. Seems like they'd be getting off easy when you do the math.

As the leaves start to change color and the temperature starts to cool down, hiking in the fall is an incredible experience, especially in the desert southwest. The air is crisp, the landscape is beautiful, and there are so many fun things to do with family and friends.

I recently took a trip to Kanarra Falls just north of St. George, Utah and was totally taken aback by its beauty. That had me looking around for more hikes to take soon! Fall is here, which means 110 degree temperatures are not. It's safe to step outside and explore!

Here are some of the reasons why hiking in the fall is the best.

One of the best things about hiking in the fall is the weather. It’s not too hot or too cold, which makes for perfect hiking conditions. The desert can be quite hot in the summer, so hiking in the fall is a great time to enjoy the scenery without having to worry about overheating. If you’re looking for a moderate challenge, Fall is also a great time to hike one of Arizona’s “seven summits” – Humphreys Peak, Arizona’s tallest mountain at 12,637 feet.

Another reason why hiking in the fall is the best is because of all the beautiful leaves. The desert southwest has some of the most incredible fall foliage, and it’s truly a sight to see. Apache Junction is home to Lost Dutchman State Park which is a great place to see all sorts of different trees and plants changing color. Hiking through Lost Dutchman in the fall is an experience you won’t soon forget.

Finally, hiking in the fall is a great opportunity to spend time with family and friends. There are so many different trails and places to explore, and it’s a great way to get some exercise while spending time together. After a long day of hiking, you can relax around a campfire or enjoy some s’mores under the stars. Hiking in the fall is an activity that everyone can enjoy.

Whether you’re looking for stunning views or wanting to spend time with family and friends, hiking in the fall is an activity that everyone can enjoy. With perfect weather conditions and incredible scenery, there are so many reasons why hiking in the fall is simply the best.

I've got five hikes below that are worth checking out. Some are in our own backyard, some are a bit of a drive, but all are worthy of your soles.

The Wave is a popular hike located in the Coyote Buttes area of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
