Join us for a challenging and breathtaking full moon night hike to Charleston Peak — one of Nevada’s most iconic summits. Standing at 11,916 feet, it’s the 8th highest mountain in Nevada and offers a 360° panoramic view. On a clear night, you’ll see the glow of Las Vegas to the east and the silhouettes of California's southern ranges to the west — all under the moonlight.
Even during hot summer months, summit temps can be cold and windy, so proper gear is essential.
