Default Vegas

Sandy Valley to the southwest, another just across the CA line, also maybe Pahrump. All are a short distance by air but long drives.

Default Closest to Vegas is Sandy Valley...

30 minutes by car to the south edge of Vegas (actually Henderson, at St. Rose Parkway)

Check out Overton. Quiet little valley an hour's drive from the city. Access to Lake Mead and little country airport that had great fuel prices last time I went through there.

Heads up on 3LC. Winds approaching this area are very challenging when high wind speed times. Check with the locals.
