What you see in this image is me heading downhill from the Mount Charleston, Lee Canyon and Kyle Canyon area. Above the Joshua Trees is another mountain rising up sharply, but many many miles east of where I am. That’s a huge valley baby! I think the other mountain is a part of the Sheep Range which runs north and south and also forms a portion of the Las Vegas range which is a part of the northern border of Las Vegas Valley. Are you still with me? Directions are a very strong suit for me! I don’t get lost easily at all…

Nevada is the most mountainous state in the union, behind Alaska.
