The best of the best, that's the Las Vegas "Local 10" Peak Challenge. All 10 of these peaks are very popular with LV locals. 8 of the 10 have trails to their summits. The only 2 peaks without trails to the top are Bridge Mountain and Calico Tanks Peak -- both local mega-favorites. If you're just getting into this or don't know the routes, head out with one of the very active local hiking groups. Created by peakery member Kevin Humes.

"Challenging route finding near the top of Bridge. I missed a couple cairns and went up via scary Class 5 slabs. Found the advertised Class 3 on the way back, which would still be solid 4 in the Canadian Rockies." — Taras • Dec 23, 2024

"Really, I don't log every redcap climb here. I just wanted a clean track of my trip with Jess, by the "Not Red-White" route and the back side. I've put numbers on the photos because and edit, anywhere, will cause peakery to randomize the photos." — hwstock • Nov 12, 2024

"Great day. We got lost but figured out the way. We returned early to make sure Jess had locked her car. That's my story, and I'm sticking with it. I figure this is over my 70th time up redcap." — hwstock • Nov 5, 2024

"NOTE: there are two "North Peaks": one is sandstone and reached by a use trail (starting 2.4 miles from willow spring); and there is a higher limestone one as a spur off the official BLM Bridge Mt trail (the trail that starts at Red rock Summit, over 5 miles from Willow Spring). The limestone "North Peak" was renamed "Crest Peak" in a 2008 guidebook, and the latter name has stuck on some modern mapping apps. So be careful which one you actually want. I met some very confused people who were using Alltrails, which directed them to the sandstone north peak, when they really wanted the limestone peak.
57x up Bridge (I don't plan to log all in to Peakery). Another eye (after strabismus surgery), knee, pack test. All good, still not used to seeing with two eyes since 2018. I happened to intersect with an ultramarathon." — hwstock • Oct 23, 2024

"Favorite route to Charlie. I've done it 5 times now, trying 3 different descents. Today's was preferred, however all routes result in 8 hours almost to the minute.
The weather was fabulous up there today. " — DudeAlmighty • Oct 10, 2024
