Lake Mead is very scenic, as the Playboy pictorial with Darva Conger
captured so well (hey, its Nevada, so there's gotta be sex in there

Northern Nevada is generally scenic in a lunar landscape sorta way,
though the Reno/Tahoe area is very nice. THere are lots of locations
with very interesting geological formations around the state.
