boulder city: Las Vegas - Those Dam Neighbors! - 03/12/08 11:07 PM

boulder city: Beyond the Neon.......Part 1, Trails - 10/19/07 12:56 AM
I have mentioned in my previous blogs about all the activities here in Las Vegas, other than gambling. Now that the swim season is wrapping up with the cooler 70s & 80s here in the valley, it is time to enjoy even more of the outdoors......during the 'Second Spring' of the year.
The River Mountain Trail I've mentioned before, will be approximately 35 miles in length when completed and connect Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, Henderson, Lake Las Vegas and Boulder City. But wait, there's still more......a LOT more.
