Red rock is nice, just take charleston blvd (about 1 mile north of sahara off LV blvd) all the way west (maybe 15-20 miles??) and you will see a turn off on the right to the loop (once you are on the loop, it is one way, so you have to finish it) (unless they changed that??).
Also valley of fire is real nice (like red rock but on steroids) but it is a good 1 hour drive from vegas.
Zion national park is also gorgeous but it is 3 hrs from vegas.

The trip to Zion is worth the ride. I've usually gone there for a couple of days after the ARA show.
Won't be able to make it this year. :'-(

If you take Interstate 15 North from Vegas, you will run into some really beautiful areas. Last year, The Queen and I drove from Salt Lake City to Vegas for the Show. Stopped at Zion and Bryce Canyon and kicked some tires. We did not get enough time to really explore the Virgin River area in northern AZ. If I remember correctly, we weren't 45 minutes north of the Strip and we were in some beautiful areas.
Tomorrow we are flying into Phoenix. Then we will drive up to Vegas for Wed., Thurs., Friday. Then escape back into northern AZ. I would like to hit Flagstaff then head towards eastern AZ. Work our way down to Tucson then back to Phoenix and back to northern WI. God I hope it is warm. It will be warmer than here, but I hope sweaty hot warm. See you at the show.

If you are going to be near Flagstaff, you should go to Sedona, it is gorgeous and worth seeing.
