I snapped this photo a few days ago in Calico Basin looking southeast. Note the successive mountains in the distance, and the many large towers which are in Henderson, NV. There are many TV and radio stations up there, you will pass near them heading for Hoover Dam.

I love that u included the black and white shot too. Somehow the mountain ranges stand out more in that pic in my opinion. Beautiful!
Thank you Sandra! Sometimes I just make a BW version, in this case I like that the towers in Henderson are still visible, and the hazy glow where the terrain drops off. My best educated guess is that this location is roughly 2000 higher than the Strip… 🌵
