Christmas in Vegas....want to explore

[fastmtnbiker33w]

I've spent many a Christmas in Las Vegas but have only done day rides while there.  I'm going up again this Christmas and would love to escape the in-laws for a couple days or 3 by doing some bikepacking in the area.  Does anyone already have some good routes they'd be willing to share?  If anyone would be interested in joining me, let me know.
