Description

Reflection of cathedral rock, Sedona AZ taken the day after a rainstorm.
Red Rock Crossing is a symbol of the American Southwest and the most photographed spot in Arizona. It is a favorite place for artists and art classes to visit and paint. It has been featured in more than 60 classic Hollywood films and is displayed on hundreds of postcards, posters, calendars, and billboards. Red Rock Crossing is a scenic former ford across Oak Creek, with photogenic views of Cathedral Rock. The crossing was washed out in a flood in 1978, and there are no current plans to reopen it to automobile traffic. Past proposals to build a bridge at Red Rock Crossing met vociferous opposition. Most of the crossing is included in the Coconino National Forest's Crescent Moon Ranch recreation area.Sit on the banks of Oak Creek, have a swim or take a hike along either side of the creek on wonderful wooded trails. The trail on the south side of the creek will lead you all the way to the top of Cathedral Rock, offering breathtaking views and excellent exercise. A great place to set up for the day. Bring a picnic lunch and prepare for a glorious outing, open daily, Sunrise to Sunset. Red Rock Crossing is a State Park. Fine Art America watermark will not appear on purchased artwork.
