    Nice trails off the main highway on the way from Vegas to pahrump that are free to access and do…read morehave a restroom. The trails go for a bit and have beautiful views of the mountains all around. Overall, the trails are pretty flat and are in the easier side, with lots of grave/rocks though. Much of the hike is in direct sun, so be prepared for that if coming mid-day. The rubber ducky trail is off of here where you can see the tree decorated with rubber ducks. It's a bit silly, but is a fun draw for the area.

    Wow, what a wonderful trailhead! Note that this trailhead is in the middle of nowhere before you…read morereach Pahrump, so there is absolutely no cellphone reception in the area. This is a great trailhead for those that are new to hiking or just love hiking in general. The trails are mostly flat that loops around (5 miles total) and you have amazing Mountain View's all around. It was really windy that day so because of this we didn't hike the whole 5 miles. Though I was wearing the appropriate shoes and had a full bottle of water and walking sticks on me, I still felt like I wasn't really prepared for this trail, since I had my hands full and I did not have a backpack on me. Though I live in Henderson, making the 30+ minute drive out of the city to hike Late Night was definitely worth it! While it was windy overall, the temperature wasn't too hot or too cold to hike.

    Las Vegas Overlook Loop…read more Review: In the last 12 months, we completed this hike 2.5 times. Our first time was February 2019 just days after Las Vegas was hit with snow. The challenge then was the cold weather and slippery/icy terrain. We attempted this hike last summer before 7 AM and turned around after 2 miles due to the heat. We just hiked this trail a few days ago and the weather was perfect. This hike is no cupcake, but at the same time, I didn't think it was too difficult. Just keep in mind that the total distance is a little over 6 miles, it will take over 2 hours to complete, the climb is between 1,500-2,000 feet, and 90% of the trail is exposed. If you ever climbed Exploration Peak or Lone Mountain and thought either one was hard, then this hike is NOT for you. I compare this hike to Turtlehead Peak or Gass Peak. The view is awesome!! Stats: According to AllTrails, the total distance is 6.3 miles round-trip, 1,534 ft elevation gain, and rated as "hard". My stats are about the same. The only difference is that my Garmin has the elevation gain a little over 2,000 ft. Location & Tips: I'm unsure where exactly the trailhead starts, but you can park off NV-159 and Fossil Ridge Road or GPS to Cowboy Trail Rides (4053 Fossil Ridge Road, Las Vegas, NV 89161). Due to the Coronvirus and all of the shutdowns, the main parking is currently closed, but you can still park on the side of the road or in front of the parking lot. There is typically an enough space to safely park if you get here early. -Start from the Horseback Riding signage and head down the trail. The stables will be on your left side and as the trail begins to merge right. Take the first trail past the stables on the left. The trail is clearly defined (even in snow) and easy to follow. -Around .75 Miles: You will see two trails; one is leading left and the other is straight. Head straight and from there, you'll reach a few switchbacks. After 4 sets of switchbacks, you'll reach a split. The trail to the left heads to Muffin Ridge and the trail to the right heads towards the overlook. Follow the trail to the overlook. From there, it's another 2 miles to the highest point and the overlook. -The overlook is around the 3-mile mark. Enjoy the view, snap some pics, but be careful. Keep in mind that you're still on top of a mountain. Gravity always wins. -Heading Back: You can either backtrack back to the trailhead or continue on the trail to complete a full loop. Continue the trail and you'll reach the flattest part of the hike. You know you're there when you see the solar panels. Continue to follow the trail to another trail dubbed Bone Shaker Extreme. Follow that trail down and watch your footing. Parts of the trail is rocky, slippery, and potentially, bone shaking dangerous. Follow that trail and eventually, you'll reach the area that leads you back to the trailhead.

    If you're looking for a hike in the Red Rock area with excellent views and want to get lots of…read moresteps on your Garmin, Whoop, or FitBit, this one is it. Plus, you don't need a reservation! Park at the Cowboy Trails horseback rides parking lot off of SR 159 and head towards the horses. Just follow that road until you see a trail to your left and follow it; using the AllTrails app is recommended as there are various little trails there. It's about 2.7 miles to the overlook with gradual elevation gain along the way. You'll know you've arrived when you are greeted by a fantastic view of the Strip and Vegas Valley in front of you. From here, you can turn around and go back the way you came or continue on the trail heading west where you'll eventually face Red Rock. The trail will loop north until you start heading down back down towards the horses. Careful on the descent as there is loose gravel and rocks to navigate. If you do a true loop and not the out and back, it's very easy to get almost 6.5 miles total when you start tracking your mileage from the parking lot. This hike will take the better part of 3-3.5 hours depending on your pace and how much time you want to spend at the overlook enjoying the view. Bring plenty of hydration and snacks to enjoy, but be sure to pick up after yourselves. Happy hiking! #LeaveNoTrace

    Willow Creek, at the northern end of the Spring Mountains in the boundaries of the Humboldt-Toiyabe…read moreNational Forest, is a fun time! To get here you'll need to drive north on U.S. 95 from Las Vegas and then turn west off the 95 onto Cold Creek Road, which runs in between two prison facilities. It's about 17 miles of paved road until you see the sign for Willow Creek in your right. Once you turn, you will be on a dirt road and please remember to drive slow as there are residential homes along the road and animals. You will pass some picnic tables along the way that are great for a picnic or rest break. It's not very maintained out here, because the creek has washed out roadways and the proper authorizes stopped maintaining the road, so you will find people at times camping, but not often. Most of the time it's dirt bikes, ATV's and 4x4 high-clearance vehicles stopping for lunch after riding the rugged road past Willow Creek. The amount of water in Willow Creek (about 3 miles from cold creek road where you turned for WC) depends on how much runoff from rain and snow fills it. The Nevada Spring Snail can be found in the creek, but please let them be and don't add anything to the water. Habitat loss effects the snails. Cottonwoods, willows, wildflowers and many beautiful shrubs thrive along the creek where wildlife likes to hang out. I heard lots of critters scurrying around in the bushes. You'll need to bring plenty of water and as always you'll need to pack out what you pack in. Nobody wants a trashy area and since this area isn't maintained as much it would be great if we who use it could just keep it nice. If you decide to drive through the creek and proceed further you will need at least a 4x4 high-clearance vehicle to safely make it through. Past the creek it's extremely rugged and will take you through Wheeler Pass into Pahrump. It's about 28 miles from Cold Creek all the way through to Pahrump. There are many other side roads and even one that will take you to Indian Springs. It's so so so important that you know where you are going before taking Wheeler Pass all the way through and have a map for sure. It can get confusing not knowing which road you should take and some are better for trucks/jeeps than others. Dirt bikes and ATVs are the best option for Wheeler Pass. Many have and will attempt to make it all the way through only to have to turn around because their vehicle simple cannot make it or they get stuck and need help. Oh yeah, cel signal pretty much doesn't happen out here past the creek. If you make it far enough you'll be lucky enough to take in the Tecopa Charcoal Ovens. It's a really fun ride when done right!

    Nothing brings you face to face with mortality than seeing your young children and wonder how long…read moreyou'll be around to see them graduate or marry. With our son being baptized last weekend, followed by 'real talk' with your medical specialist about the consequences of poor decisions, buffets and late nights all catching up after years of sedentary lifestyle, something needed to change. So I got a bike. The last time I used a bike regularly was in the 80's where my Tuffy took me miles away from home. And the desperate race to get home before dark and my father's whupping. I did my usual research, comparing and investigating different brands, different styles of bikes and their uses. I already had my heart set on a cyclocross or gravel bike. My buddy Gruber had a Surly that he rode 22 miles both ways to work in the dead of a Chicago winter from our apartment downtown. That sold me on the practical use of a bike that could take it under adverse conditions. I had actually looked for the right bike since. But I couldn't part ways with $3-5k on a Specialized or Trek. That was an expense I usually spared for firearms - truth talk. After my doctors appointment I made a call to the one closest to home. Giant on Blue Diamond. Spoke with Hanna and told her what I was looking for. She mentioned a couple of different models that fit the bill but what caught my attention was that one model was nearly $550 off the full price but it was the last model on the show floor. I gave it 2 weeks. And then 2 nights in a row I wake up with GI pain that kept me awake all night. I swung to the store when they opened and Pat and Hanna showed me some really cool features - 1. It was my size, 2. The tires were tubeless so there was no need to fill the tires with air - better for running over pointy things and keep on rolling, and 3. A brake system based on hydraulics. I was out of excuses. I bought it before anyone else could snap it up. Pat adjusted everything and Hanna shaved some of the seat stem after measuring - while cautioning me on the expectations and finer points of bicycling. Bottom line, I highly recommend! They're knowledgeable without being pretentious. Informative without being pushy or upselling at every opportunity. Both of them advising to spend on higher end items until I was properly broken in. Go here and ask for Pat and Hanna!

From the second I walked in, the team made me feel completely welcome -- no ego, no judgment, just genuine help. They didn't just fix my tire, they actually helped me understand the sport a little better. That meant a lot. When you're a beginner, that kind of patience and education builds confidence. Hannah especially was incredible -- her speed changing my tire was unreal. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Efficient, professional, and still super kind the entire time. What really stood out to me is that I don't even ride a Giant bike (yet), and they still treated me like I was family. That says everything about the culture of this shop. Because of how well I was treated, my next bike will absolutely be a Giant -- and I'll be coming here for life. Highly recommend.
