Red Rock Amphitheatre Colorado

Red Rocks Amphitheatre is an open-air amphitheatre built into a rock structure in the western United States, near Morrison, Colorado, ten miles (16 km) west of Denver. There is a large, tilted, disc-shaped rock behind the stage, a huge vertical rock angled outwards from stage right, several large outcrops angled outwards from stage left and a seating area for up to 9,525 The Red Rocks Park contains many layers of a cross bedded red fusion of coarse to fine grained sedimentary rock called the conglomerate Fountain Formation. The red rock is comprised of the ancient sedimentary remains of the long gone ancestral Rocky Mountains. Like a red ‘rock classic’ composed of larger notable fragments layered with finer grained rifts.   The rock mixed with materials like clay and silt sediments.   They form a very solid synthesis that has lasted eons from as far back as the Late Pennsylvanian period. Three Hundred Million years ago, give or take a few million years, these sediments began the foundations for the Red Rocks that form the park
