Mount Wilson, Nevada, may only be home to just over 30 residents, but many in the Las Vegas area visit this remote area for its beautiful biking and hiking trails, and top notch rock climbing and bouldering opportunities.
Located in the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Mount Wilson is the second highest peak in the Spring Mountains. Being only 17 miles from Las Vegas, Mount Wilson is often a day destination for many of those who live in Lincoln and Clark County.
Those who reside or visit Mount Wilson love the outdoors and engage in a variety of outdoor activities. Unfortunately, these activities can become accidents that can have an immediate and long-term effect on the quality of one’s life:
Mountain Biking: These are often the result of collisions with motor vehicles or even other cyclists, though in many situations accidents occur because of another individual not paying attention or a defective part (i.e. stuck gears, failed breaks, tire blow outs, etc.). Most cycling injuries are soft-tissue related or bone fractures.
Rock Climbing & Bouldering: Injuries while rock climbing can occur because of the negligence of another party or, much like mountain biking, can be the result of a defective part (i.e. a faulty carabiner or a poorly designed harness). While shoulder injuries are the most common, back and neck injuries, head injuries, and even death has resulted from climbing activities.
Hiking: Though far less dangerous than most other activities that take place on Mount Wilson, another party’s negligence has led to the injury or even the fatality of another hiker. Ankle, knee and hip injuries are most common, though injuries due to dehydration have also occurred.
