The 80 Acre "Mountain's Edge Exploration Park" offers breathtaking views after a small hike up Exploration Peak!
Mountain's Edge Exploration Park is Located on the SE Corner of Buffalo & Blue Diamond in the master planned community of Mountain's Edge.
Park Amenities Include: Picnic Areas, Walking/Jogging/Hiking Paths, Volleyball, Horseshoe Pits, Large Greenbelt Area, Water Splash Area and a (very cool) Western Themed Playground.
After the short ascent (2846 feet) up Exploration Peak, you will find panoramic views of the valley - including the world famous "Las Vegas Strip"!

If you go hiking up Exploration Peak make sure you bring lots of water. Even though I brought water I ran out and was hoping for a water fountain and there are no water fountains!!

Very nice.
These photos are really good.
Seems like a great place to spend the day.

Those are wonderful photographs. Looks like a great place to bring a picnic basket.
HAVING BIG TIME ISSUES UPLOADING PHOTOS NOW! I keep getting bad gateways and rebooted computer and tried two different browsers. Gave up on uploading the rest for now. Will be back!
Ralph: It was nice and relaxing. The park was very busy!
Malcolm: Good idea, didn't even think of that! There were shaded picnic areas on the top of the mountains too.
Hi Rene, Are you using a panoramic camera or photo stitching.
PS, was really surprised last night when I tried to upload photos and got the Proxy Error and Bad Gateway errors. After getting it running so smooth, I was a little surprised to see this occur so soon after the fix.
Renee - I had trouble the other day uploading pictures too.
This also reminds me that I need to get with the program and start posting to "Saturday in the Park." My camera is filled with park pictures, just haven't had time to do a write up.
Renee,
I look forward to your Saturday in the park blogs. Your pictures are always great and they inspire me to find some rest.

Great presentation. It helps to give perspective and the map also helps to see the big picture. Great Posting.

William: Panoramic camera :) No stitching for me! At any rate I thought I was losing my marbles with the bad gateways so I rebooted. Was looking forward to my series on Las Vegas Area Parks returning without drama. I will hold off now again!
Michelle: I am back to waiting for the gateways to go away!
Cal: Find some rest my friend!
Robert: Thanks for stopping by!
