Very bumpy landing in Vegas thanks to the wind.
I don't mean this as a criticism of Nevada lest Joe Republic flog me again (we will continue to disagree on that general topic), but the vast majority of the time I've flown into Vegas, it's been a wild landing. Takeoff seems ok. I'd say probably 95% of the landings were notably bumpy. I suppose something about the geographic conditions with the mountains? When I was riding on Colombian Air Force planes back in the day, even their landings on dirt runways in the desert or the jungle were smoother on average than LAS. Or it might just have been the time of day -- I almost always was on 1 of 2 flights from the East Coast.
It was about 1:30-2 PM when I landed, for reference. Take off was fine. I’ve only been to Vegas’s airport once before and I was 6, so I don’t really remember that flight.
