We're heading to Vegas for a few days. Anyone have any suggestions of places to go off of the beaten path? We've done Hoover Dam and Red Rock Canyon.
Thanks,
Alane

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent.
But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent.
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep.
In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

Bunny ranch sounds good.  Also off the beaten path is Oatman AZ, and the London bridge. Those two would take up most of a leisurely day. Worlds tallest thermometer in Baker. It's not much, but might be okay if you combined it with the roller coaster at Buffalo Bill's: http://www.primmvalleyresorts.com/family.php |

Hoover Dam-amazing engineering wonder
Drive through Red Rock park in north Las Vegas
Zion in Utah if weather permits
Grand Canyon-long drive, south side is warmer than the north side this time of year if weather permits

The new bridge is open and I understand they have a great video to view of the construction of it....
I haven't been out there since the 1st anchor was put in place. It is a hell of a feat in the construction world.

Mt. Chartleston and Death Valley. Be sure to drive to the overlook at death valley before driving to the bottom (coming from east).
North rim of the Grand Canyon is also good day trip from Vegas.
