| - What a great thing to do when in and around Vegas! Take the half hour drive out from Sin City, you won't be sorry!
The guides are all super funny, you get to check out beauty views from the peaks (Lake Mead, a bit of Hoover Dam, Boulder City itself and the awesome canyons), you get to take in fresh air and get some good exercise. The exercise consists of hiking about 15 min up a steep mountain to get to the top. And carrying heavy gear - it is not mandatory to if you are not comfortable about it but it helps to staff get everything they need to the runs.
While the guides are humorous and love to tease their clients, safety really does come first. If you are nervous, you will get reassurance when it counts.
Funny thing - it was my hubby's first time ever doing this and earned himself the nickname 'Miley Cyrus' for pulling on the brake too low at the end of a run and coming in like a wrecking ball! Lol! We have the video to prove it!
The 4 zip lines were fun. Of course much more time consuming if you have a large group and also if other people show up late.
Would recommend this activity.
In winter months, wear more layers than you think you need or a warm coat - it gets very chilly up there. Also, bring sunglasses. And gloves.
I liked that the office had a washroom that we could use, as well as lockers for any valuables you lock and hold the key to. When you return, you will be given a comment card which doubles as an envelope for gratuities.
