I can remember doing this hike when I was just a kid, and though this isn't me in this picture, it brought back happy memories so I thought I would post it. Wheeler peak is the 2nd highest peak in Nevada and one of the most enjoyable hikes in the US in my opinion. At the peak, you are at over 13,000 feet and are on the 12th largest mountain in the contiguous U.S.
The hike really isn't that hard, for the fact that I climbed it as a child but the view is breathtaking. Also at the base of the mountain is another great place to stop and check out, Lehman Caves. It is a great trip going the this huge cavern underground and seeing how the ecosystem works underground.
