This is a 360 degree panorama of "Double Negative", Michael Heizer's first prominent earthwork, on the eastern edge of Mormon Mesa northwest of Overton. “Double Negative” is one of the largest sculptures in the world, measuring 1,500 feet long, 30 feet wide and 50 feet deep.
Some 240,000 tons of rhyolite and sandstone were blasted and scooped away in 1969 to create the negative sculpture now owned by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.

The landscaping of Las Vegas is incredible. I love living in the area. I lived in Utah for a short time, and even though I loved the mountains there, it's no place like Vegas. No way to get around the awful cold in Utah six months of the year. http://www.tiptonlandscaping.com
