The
fifty-mile drive back to Las Vegas from the Valley of Fire along Hwy-167,
Northshore Drive
, takes you through some utterly stunning wilderness.
Desolate and forbidding sandstone mountains soar in your path, the road
dwindling to a thin gray streak dwarfed beneath stark serrated cliffs.
Northshore Drive
name, however, referring to its position by Lake Mead, is
misleading - you almost never see the lake itself, which remains on the
far side of a high ridge. Here and there, side roads lead down to
marinas on the lake, but unless you're going boating they're dismal
spots.
