I am reasonably sure that the two photos show a Butte just outside of the city. I’m not a geologist, the other photo is a view of a small portion of the Spring Mountains range. The Springs are an island range as they stand alone from other nearby mountain ranges.
So pretty! I miss mountains, England is as flat as a pancake!
Beautiful pictures. I loved how different colours are coming out .
Beautiful landscape. Nice layering of colors.
I’d sure love to be there right now. Great pic, John!
Thanks so much, Tom! I’ve never been in your area up there, it must be just a bit cooler? The road is Charleston Boulevard, running east-west across the entire valley. It terminates at SR160 near the little town of Blue Diamond.
