| | Many travelers enter and leave Nevada for the lights of Las Vegas alone. While the glamorous gambling capital of the west, named for "the meadows" in Spanish, is full of thrills, this region has far more to offer than what you can find on the strip. To the east, glorious Lake Mead beckons boaters to cool off in her waters. West, Red Rock Canyon has stunning cliff walls, wild burros, and lizards. Take a tour of the awe-inspiring Hoover Dam, near Boulder City. | | | | | | |
