Mount Charleston
Towering over the valley that contains Las Vegas, Mount Charleston is an impressive sight. It seems strange to look up from the sweltering valley floor and see snow on this mountain, nearly 3800m/12,000 ft high. Mount Charleston is located less than an hours drive from Las Vegas. There is a scenic drive which also features hiking trails, lookouts, and picnic spots.
