🌄Monday Miles: Lone Mountain Twilight Edition🍂

Mon, Nov 9 · 4:00 PM PST

Lone Mountain Equestrian Trail & Park, 4445 N Jensen St, las Vegas, NV, US

✦—**4pm start—**✦

˖°.🍂 Sometimes the best workout plan is ridiculously simple: get outside, walk four miles, enjoy the weather, repeat!

Join us on this favorite wide, hard-packed granite trail circling Lone Mountain—the perfect late-afternoon reset when sitting inside for one more hour has officially lost its appeal. We’ll keep a steady, conversation-friendly pace and complete two loops around. It’s a great way to get some miles in, catch up with friends, and finish Monday considerably better than it started!

Lone Mountain Loop and Trivia Night at Aces and Ales

Tue, Nov 10 · 5:00 PM PST

Lone Mountain Park, 4445 N Jensen St, Las Vegas, NV 89129, USA, Las Vegas, NV, US

Don't let the early sunset keep you indoors. Keep up your fitness and have fun! Let's take a hike around Lone Mountain, then head over to Aces and Ales for "Geeks Who Drink Trivia Night".

This will be an easy, moderately paced hike. We will do 2 loops clockwise around the mountain. We start promptly at 5pm so please arrive 5-10 minutes before. If you can’t make it in time for the first loop, we are usually circling back to start the second loop around 5:45 PM. The trail is flat with little elevation. Please don't worry about your speed on the hike. The pace is social. The route is a loop so you can't get lost. There is some lighting in the area, but please bring a flashlight or headlamp for safety.

After the hike, most of us we will attend a Trivia Night. Please don't worry about being "good at trivia". The questions are very diverse so anyone can have the answers. The most important thing is we are here to have fun!

Meeting Locations:
The hike is at Lone Mountain Discovery Park. There are many places to park your vehicle so it can be a bit confusing. We will meet at the parking lot just south of the equestrian center. The entrance is at the intersection of Jensen St. and Helena Ave.

• Please take a look at the photos section of this event. I have uploaded a map with a red line around the parking lot where we will meet.
• If you are using the Meetup app on your phone, there is a Location section that opens the map on your phone. That should direct you to the correct meeting location.

Trivia night is at Aces and Ales, 2801 N Tenaya Way, Las Vegas.

• Nearest major cross streets are Cheyenne and Tenaya.
• Google Maps
• Apple Maps

If you can't make the 5PM start time, you should be able to catch up to us at 5:45PM. At that time we should be passing the original meeting location, so you can join us for the second lap. If you plan to meet at this time, please let me know by message or in the comments so we can look for you.

Distance: About 4.5-5 miles (2 loops)
Elevation gain: around 150 feet
Exposure: None
Speed: About 3 mph
Time: About 1.5 hours for the hike. Trivia night is from 7PM to 9PM.
