Red Rock Canyon State Park, created in 1968, is located near Cantil (California), about 25 miles northeast of Mojave. Photograph caption dated December 16, 1962 reads, "Motorlogue's Dodge Roll-A-Long. In the background, Red Rock Canyon."

It includes a gas stove, oven, refrigerator, hot and cold water, gas and electric lighting, toilet, and a shower.
