There is a hill west of 215, south of Charleston Boulevard, and east-northeast of the Red Rock campground and Bureau of Land Management fire station. I rarely see it named on any maps, but some places call it Summerlin Hill (not to be confused with Summerlin Peak). If you stand on top of the west parking garage at Red Rock Resort and look west, it’s the first significant geographic feature you see. Does it have an official name? I see some signs of some sort of industrial plant. What is it? There is excellent hiking (as well as mountain biking and horseback riding) at Blue Diamond Hill nearby. Is hiking allowed on this hill? Who is the owner of this hill? Any interesting historical details?
