Nostalgia & History > Ruby CanyonDate: 07/05/20 12:37 Ruby Canyon Author: flynn I did a search on the Denver Public Library for Hanging Rock and got 113 pictures. Many were of places other than Clear Creek Canyon, Colorado. One picture is labeled as the Glenwood Canyon. I think this picture is in Utah and not Colorado. I don’t think there are smooth rocks in the Glenwood Canyon. Does anyone recognize the location?
