In reply to Anja. Oh totally: There are SO many fun outdoors things to do near Las Vegas. It's not all neon lights and casinos!

This looks amazing. Love Vegas for the cheap accommodation but not the casinos, good to see you have lots of outdoors things to do!

In reply to simplyjolayne. I was surprised at first too! But the truth is there are so many hikes near Las Vegas. The bigger problem is choosing which one you want to do!

In reply to Linda (LD Holland). I think guessing at the meaning of petroglyphs is part of the fun - my kids sure think so!

In reply to Vanessa Shields. The Fire Wave Trail is absolutely unforgettable. It's wild how the rocks are striped and twisted like that!

In reply to Cecilia. Oh, I'm so glad hotels are pointing guests to Valley of Fire! It's absolutely worth the drive. Maybe you can go next time you're in Las Vegas.

In reply to Faith. Argh I wish grafiti of this type weren't so common. It blows my mind. But to your other point, it's so true that there's more to Las Vegas than casinos! There are incredible day trips and hikes so nearby.

In reply to Sarah. Oh my, this *would* be a different scene than Ontario! The desert in Nevada is such a unique landscape - and definitely worth a trip.
