Red Rock offers Friday the 13th hike and stories

Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2000 | 10:09 a.m.

Ghost stories on Friday the 13th are on tap this week at the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.

Entitled Full Moon and Friday the 13th, the three-mile hike Friday is open to anyone from 8 years old to adults. Volunteer Vera will tell the myth of "Friday the 13th" and weave ghost and Indian stories. Meet at the Fee Station. Parents must accompany children.

The event is one of many free hikes and educational programs offered each week, but reservations are necessary. Call 363-1922.

Among other programs planned is a session on Red Rock rock art, which includes a one-mile easy to moderate hike to see evidence left by early Indians in prehistoric rock art in the area.
