Type of attraction: Adventure. Outdoor. Sightseeing. Familiar.
Nevada's high desert is dotted with mountain lakes, one of which, Angel Lake, lies at the end of a scenic 12 mile drive where sagebrush, pinon, mountain mahogany and quaking aspens eventually give way to the towering stone spires and cold mountain creeks. Numerous hiking trails offer a perfect way to stretch out after the steep, winding drive.
