"The Las Vegas 100", this is the big one. The ultimate peak challenge of the Las Vegas region. Includes all peaks from the Las Vegas Local 10, Las Vegas 10K, Clark County P2K, and Lake Mead Peak Challenges. Also includes some of the closer DPS and LVMC 50 peaks and some of the best from the 52 Peaks and Valley of Fire Challenges. Rounding out the 100 peaks are a handful not included in other challenges but very worthwhile hikes. And if you live in the Vegas area, no excuses: all 100 of these peaks can be done as daytrips from Vegas. This challenge will put you through the gauntlet and test your routefinding and offtrail hiking skills. A huge achievement. Created by prolific LV area mountain hiker and peakery member Kevin Humes.

Highlights
"Always a fun loop that can be modified in many ways...adding or subtracting peaks on the way. It's fun to see the expressions on the faces of the team when they do the Rainbow Direct route for the first time. " — Heartattackbruce • Apr 21, 2024

"TR and Condition report on Rocky Gap Road out of Willow Springs. My 56x up Bridge. I normally avoid this road unless required by expediency. I used to drive up here in a 2003 Subaru with 7 inches clearance, aided by the narrowness of that vehicle. Since then, one section has gotten better and two have gotten worse. The section bigRocksInRoad (right after 1st wash) and BadRedHill are worse. The OldBadSpot, where a stream sometimes crosses, is better. We saw several Pink Jeeps turn around at Park4NorthPeak at 2.4 miles up – they used to turn around below that. bigRocksInRoad 36.1646953 -115.5068051 lastBigPullout 36.1604693 -115.5172013 oldBadSpot 36.1590931 -115.5201408 BadRedHill 36.1568590 -115.5206260 park4NorthPeak 36.1511667 -115.5235472 " — hwstock • Apr 20, 2024
"Clark Mountain you kicked my butt today. We chose to go up and down the class 2 route because we had our dog. The peak has awesome views as for the hike I think I managed to put my hand in every cactus along the route. Even with the cactus this was another perfect day and a great way to end desert peak bagging season before it gets too hot. " — maggielynn • Apr 16, 2024
"4.16.24~3.2 miles, 1,000’ gain in 1:34hr from hwy. Quick workout before work. Found the reg. this time. I forgot it was small. I didnt have to practice up and down this time. Was confident at the memorization. had less butterflies in stomach on top but not enough less to enjoy a snack. Next time. Pretty day. It’s getting warm. " — paula.raimondi • Apr 16, 2024
