Hi everyone,
My son has a big "national" level soccer tournament in Los Vagas at the end of March. Being from the east cost (I'm from Syracuse area, my wife from the Phili area) and never having been out to an area like Los Vagas, I'm thinking I'd love to take a few extra days and do some sight seeing.
Because of the soccer conditions, I don't think we'll be able to do anything until after his last game about mid-Sunday morning. What I was thinking is that if we did a quick tour of the 'stip' on Sunday afternoon, we'd have a couple of extra days to possible rent a 4x4 (choice of course would be obvious if possible) and then I'd absolutely love to go and visit a nearby canyon, or possible drive through the desert and go to an abandoned ghost town. Then maybe go and visit the Grand Canyon.
At any rate, it would be so different from muddy trails and tree lined routes that we've it in the MI area (although we've done 200'+ sand dunes in Western MI).
So, I'd welcome someone who's done something like that, and some advice on what and were we could rent. Ultimately, if there is anyone we could hook up with we'd be willing to go out with us for a day that would be the ultimate experience.
So where would we go and what would we see? I'd welcome some ideas.
(PS, my kids aged 15 & 13 have been off-road with me, but the wife hasn't it so the more scenic over winch level challenge would be of more interest to her, but it just wouldn't be an adventure if we couldn't use low-range!
