About this postcard

View of the massive tilted red sandstone formations of Red Rocks Park, with rustic stone masonry structures and a curving stone wall in the foreground. The park, west of Denver near Morrison, Colorado, is famous for its dramatic upturned sedimentary layers and for the open-air amphitheatre and stone entranceways built by Civilian Conservation Corps crews in the 1930s. The caption names the site simply as Red Rocks Park, Colorado.
