  • Naturist Hiking (with care) A Few Miles from Tonopah

    Saddle Mountain offers some great hiking. With luck, you might also spot some petroglyphs or one or more of the desert bighorn sheep that make Saddle Mountain their home. While the mountain is hardly busy, neither are its charms a secret. When the weather is cooler, it's common to see a few boondockers on the western side.
