•Created by Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone and produced by the Nevada Museum of Art, the installation opened May 11, 2016, and was originally planned for just two years but has been extended indefinitely due to its popularity.
•The seven towers stand more than 30 feet high and are composed entirely of colorfully stacked boulders positioned in the Ivanpah Valley near Sheep Mountain and multiple mountain ranges.
•The site is located approximately 10 miles south of Las Vegas near Jean Dry Lake and Interstate 15, making it accessible but distinctly removed from the city's main attractions.
•Visitors are encouraged to leave no trace—the artwork remains pristine through a 'leave no trace' visitor philosophy, with the public welcome to photograph the installation.
