Fresh paint really pops! Easy to see from the highway and frontage/access road, and the installation is halfway between two exits off I-15. No bathrooms or water, but plenty of places to pull off and take a roadside piddle.

Took a quick trip from Fremont Street to this location. Easy trip. There were about 20 cars in the parking lot, which surprised us as it was a Monday at 4:00 on an overcast day. Beware that there are two parking curbs on a cement pad in the middle of the parking lot. Very easy to overlook and drive over. Could ruin your experience.
Installation is unique; makes you wonder and admire, especially the vibrant colors.

Seven towers of brightly painted rocks sit in the desert outside of Las Vegas. The rock towers are at least 25 feet tall. Installed recently by the artist,it will remain until May 2018. See sevenmagicmountains.com for details No admission fee - there's a small parking area nearby off NV-161.
