What to expect
Out of the city before dawn to walk the Calico sandstone as the sun turns it orange, then the one-way scenic loop with stops at Willow Springs petroglyphs and High Point.
Calico Hills at first light + 13-mile drive Departures run from Las Vegas & the Southwest, and the whole experience takes about 4 hours — enough to fit it into a single day of a wider Las Vegas & the Southwest itinerary.
