In 1996 the Las Vegas High Rollers and Strollers held a nationally advertised Volksmarch. Our goal is for the attendees to take with them an appreciation of the mountains and increased knowledge in how to enjoy them. Over 2,000 attended the 1996 festival. About every six weeks, our association sponsors a tour in the Spring Mountains. Currently Bob Maichle puts together a handout with an itinerary and a brief description of the items to be discussed at each stop.
Additional information is added as appropriate.
Mr. Maichle is a local Las Vegan well versed in history, geology, topography et al. From time to time other people knowledgeable in their own right are invited. The car tours are advertised in the ECHO and the local newspapers. Although the group may be limited to protect the environment, efforts are made to include all-comers. To my knowledge everyone has always been included.
