Only 45 minutes from the Las Vegas strip

Mary Jane Falls trail is just a 45 minute drive outside of the Las Vegas strip! And yes, there was still snow on the mountains in mid June!

There is a guide on all trails for the specific hike in Mount Charleston. Make sure you get gas before you leave town because there is not a gas station in Mount Charleston or anywhere near. Seriously, almost ran out of gas because I did not know lol.
