Photographed on the summit of a sub peak of Juniper Peak, Magic Mountain offers an awe-inspiring view highlighting many of the most prominent features of the Red Rock Range. The summit of Rose Tower hundreds of feet below and the 1200 ft Aquarium Wall give way to the iconic Rainbow Wall and Rainbow Peak rising more than 2000 feet from the valley floor, with Mount Wilson - the tallest of the sandstone peaks - completing the distant left third of the composition.
“Climbing these walls has opened my eyes to a world that I didn’t know existed. Much like rock climbing, this image elicits a healthy fear and respect for the untamed grandeur and permanence of these mountains, and at the same time a sense of awe and peace from being immersed in such vast beauty. I can see these peaks from my home in Summerlin, and they never cease to inspire me. I will never take them for granted, and I wanted to share their story in a way that had never been done before.” - Bobby Wheat
