Where in NV desert are you? Looks like near Las Vegas. I’m up in Reno/Sparks. I was supposed to be there this whole week but our wonderful governor sort of shut us down.
Of course, if you’d rather not specify your location, I totally understand.
 
No not Vegas . Reno/Sparks ,over looking the Dog skin valley . 25 minutes from my house.
 
Where do you shoot now ? Are you familiar with the "Moon Rocks " You can get to the dog skin valley from there ,I get there from Lemon Valley .
I know Lemon valley. I’ve heard of the anion Rocks but have never been there. I shoot about 5 miles north of the Washoe County range on the east side of Pyramid Hwy. I’m about 2 miles west of the intersection of Pyramid Hwy. and Eagle Canyon.

How far of shooting distance do you have there ?
 
I can get to right around 1000 maybe a touch farther. Uphill at about a 20 degree angle.

Man, 5 miles north, that's getting very close to the lake like on the Res, aren't you??
