The Big Apple Coaster
The Big Apple Coaster is a steel hyper roller coaster at the New York-New York Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. The coaster's trains are themed to New York City taxicabs. It is the only roller coaster by Japanese roller coaster manufacturer TOGO still operating in North America. The coaster features a 180-degree "heartline" twist and a 203-foot drop, with speeds reaching up to 67 mph. The coaster's red track snakes through a mock-up of Manhattan. The Big Apple Coaster is not a tame or family-friendly ride, but a real and credible coaster.

Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area
Red Rock Canyon was designated as Nevada's first National Conservation Area. Red Rock Canyon is located 17 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip on Charleston Boulevard/State Route 159. In marked contrast to a town geared to entertainment and gaming, Red Rock offers enticements of a different nature including a 13-mile scenic drive, miles of hiking trails, rock climbing, horseback riding, mountain biking, road biking, picnic areas, nature observing and visitor center with indoor and outdoor exhibits as well as a book store.
Hoover Dam Visitor Center
Established in 1902, the Bureau of Reclamation is best known for the dams, powerplants, and canals it constructed in the 17 Western states throughout the 20th Century. These water projects led to homesteading and promoted the economic development of the West. Reclamation has constructed more than 600 dams and reservoirs, including Hoover Dam on the Colorado River and Grand Coulee on the Columbia River. The bureau is organized into six regions: Columbia-Pacific Northwest, California-Great Basin, Upper Colorado Basin, Lower Colorado Basin, Missouri Basin, and Arkansas-Rio Grande-Texas Gulf. Administratively, Hoover Dam is a part of the Lower Colorado Dams Office (LCDO) of the Lower Colorado Basin Region.
