- Title: Mt Wheeler - Highest Peak in Nevada
- Description: Wheeler Peak is the tallest independent mountain in Nevada and is over 230 miles from the nearest higher peak. The prominence of Wheeler Peak, at 7,563 feet, is the twelfth largest in the contiguous United States. It is also the 12th most topographically isolated summit in the contiguous United States. Wheeler Peak has an impressive headwall above a large glacial cirque, large moraines and an active rock glacier. The top of the mountain is covered by deep snow most of the year. Artwestimage staffer Greg Nelson, summitted the peak in the summer of 2005 and took this image from the ridge trail.
