Introduction
Red Rocks, in Morrison southwest of Denver, is a naturally formed red-sandstone amphitheatre: the towering 'Ship Rock' and 'Creation Rock' embrace the stage like arms, with acoustics so pure it is a National Historic Landmark. Since 1941, legends have played here; even without a show, visitors hike the trails, overlook the eastern Rockies and learn geology and music history at the visitor centre. For nature and live-music lovers, it is Denver's soulful nearby sanctuary.
