were there any obstacles out there, or just graded roads? . . . .


There were a few broken bottles, and the occasional jack rabbit, but yeah mostly graded / paved roads...... (ouch... )

Otis - I also live in Vegas. Don't have the Hummer yet, though I am searching for an H1 as we speak. My question was where did you buy your H2? Towbin Hummer? And I would have to agree the Las Vegas area has some awesome trails! Maybe when I get mine we can go out and break it in


Yeah, i got it at Towbin.
Sounds good. I'm always down for a little off roadin adventure

the broken bottles are the worst, they have absolutely no traction, front lockers don't even help. and jackrabbits offer no support - one minute you're climbing, the next you've dropped 8" to the ground, hard. BTM is no help on them.

when i used to have to travel to Vegas for work, i used to do free climbing at a place called redrocks, at the far northern end of Charleston. not sure if the houses have made it that far out or not. is this place anywhere near that?

Yep, same place. I did some climbing there myself (ONCE!!!) not for me....I got about 6' off the ground and came right back down [place "chicken" smiley here]...anyway...haha

Yeah, they've pretty much developed up to the base of the canyon.

i only climbed the rocks on the entrance side, not the ones after the loop at the end of the canyon. the ones on the way in were a bit less vertical. i never knew there were roads to go back even further, but in a rental car, those things didn't come to mind at the time. . . .
