As a local, we always tell our friends to avoid summer, late spring, and early fall at all costs unless you never leave the casinos or are here for the pool parties.
Note: Everyone has different tolerances to cold and heat. From June through August, temperatures frequently exceed 100°F 38°C, so we don’t recommend hiking in Red Rock or Valley of Fire go to Mt Charleston instead.
Heat Stroke happens when your body overheats and can’t cool back down. Reapply every two hours or more if you’re swimming or sweating a lot
Take breaks in the shade or indoors, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Use hats, sunglasses, and umbrellas for extra protection.

February is chilly but not as cold as January. Avoiding crowds is challenging with staggered Spring Breaks, St. Patrick’s Day, and March Madness fans. I’ve seen people show up in tshirts who have to buy sweaters when they arrive.
