Ruby Mountains - A Hidden Gem in Nevada

As I landed in Elko, I was greeted by an unusual sight - an array of majestic peaks. These were the Ruby Mountains, a range that looked as though it had been painted in shades of red, pink, and purple. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that these colors were due to the presence of garnets and other minerals in the rocks. I hiked along the trails that led through pristine forests, sparkling streams, and shimmering meadows. The mountains seemed to ripple with life as the sun set behind them.
