While in Nevada, we attempted to go to Lee Canyon for some snow play, but highway patrol ended up turning people around since the snow was minimal. Since we were already on Mt. Charleston, we decided to check out the Spring Mountains Visitor Gateway which was just a few minutes away, and it turned out to be a starting point for a number of hikes.

The Kunav Huveep Trail is an easy "stroller-friendly" trail, and we did some of the Pack Rat route, which leads to a very steep Escarpment Trail.
We didn't do the entire trail since we had no plans on hiking (we just had some free time and decided to get some physical activity in), and we really weren't dressed for it nor did we have adequate water, etc., but the park ranger at the Visitor Center said the views are incredible if you can get to the top.
Even though it was in the 40s, it was very warm being out in the sun.
It was nice to be outdoors, away from the hustle & bustle of The Strip. The views were pretty!

If hiking is not your thing, there are a number of exhibits you can see around the Visitors Center, and of course there are restrooms.
