"Calico Basin, Summerlin. Alright, so you’ve eaten, drank, and shopped your way through Summerlin by now. Let’s hit the great outdoors. Most Nevada locals and tourists are familiar with Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, but about 1 mile before you hit Red Rock, there’s a somewhat hidden gem known as Calico Basin. The mountainous area provides hikers with beautiful scenery and a variety of trails, all without the entry fee they collect at Red Rock. We like to climb to the top (of the shortest mountain) to soak in panoramic views of the entire Las Vegas valley. It’s a peaceful, quiet place to sit, breath, and bow to the beauty of our great city. Namaste."
