The existing photo is rather odd; could use some photos to show the dramatic and unique natural qualities of this venue. Pimlottc 18:18, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, the ampitheatre is not a natural rock formation, as the article now says. It is an artificial creation built in and among, and taking advantage of, the naturally occurring rocks. The rocks also outline the space in which the ampitheatre is built.

I'll post a picture in the near future from within the amphitheatre as well as halfway up Mt. Moorison which is the foothill on which Red Rocks is nestled at it's base.

On a different note, there are of course typical steps as most venues. Rumor has it though that there are larger steps in the middle and that NO ONE has run up these larger steps without stopping. This may be due to the extended leg stride that may be needed as well as the explosive jump that would be needed for each step. A friend suggested recently that an Olympic hurdle jumper might do well at this challenge.
