Looking west toward Charleston Peak (skylined on the right). The upper photo is from the Chester R. Longwell collection (#311-0035) at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and was taken ca. 1925. I took the lower photo on 15 June 2011. The most striking change is that the trees are taller! The Lee Canyon highway is also barely visible to the left of center in the modern photo (outlined). And, of course, there are no animals grazing right now, but I'm sure that you can still see them sometimes. ;)
