The expansive views in all directions, e.g.:
- Overton Arm (blue Lake Mead). The entire long, relatively-narrow embayment is visible (looking N and NW), including its wide confluence with Virgin Basin's water (W).
- Virgin Basin (blue Lake Mead). This water and its narrow western outlet through Boulder Canyon are visible (WSW).
- Temple Basin (blue Lake Mead). This water, Temple Mesa and Temple Bar are visible (SW).
- Gregg Basin (blue Lake Mead). This water and Sandy Point peninsula are visible (SE). I remember Sandy Point as the last night out on a river trip from Lees Ferry.
- Virgin Mountains (N).
- Generally eastward: The impressive, vertical Grand Wash Cliffs along the entire horizon with the Colorado River's exit slit are visible. Also, Grand Wash, Hells Kitchen, reddish Million Hills, Wheeler Ridge, and the Indian Hills/Iceberg-Ridge which between then sequester water invisible from Jumbo.
- Grapevine Mesa and vast desert (S).
- Bonelli Peak, a conical peak on a ridge only 5.5-miles away (SW). Jack Grains and I climbed Bonelli on 26 Nov 1982 and a register said John Vitz and Don Kirby did on 16 Feb 1979.
- Generally westward: Charleston Peak and Potosi Mountain on the far horizon. In the late afternoon on a sunny day, the entire west to the horizon appeared as a succession of dark silhouettes of mountain ranges, stacked one behind another as though they were cut from cardboard.
- Muddy Mountains, Valley of Fire and (far off) the Sheep Range north of Las Vegas (NW).
