I live in one state but love the weather in Nevada. I know there is more to Nevada than just Las Vegas. This book is a wonderful source. It lists places to visit, times of operations. Every time we visit, we use this guide to visit new places of interest. Red Rock Valley of Fire is one of the best and most beautiful sites I have seen in a long time and it was recommended in this book. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to try new adventures when visting Las Vegas.
