Little Finland

Clark County, NV

Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.

Little Finland (Hobgoblin’s Playground) is a plateau of wind-carved Aztec Sandstone fins in Gold Butte National Monument, Clark County. Delicate red fins and goblin shapes reward a short scramble from a remote 4WD trailhead. No services or reliable cell; heat and soft sand are the main hazards. Stay on durable surfaces—formations are fragile.
