At some point, when the head is swollen and the brain is cloudy from sitting at the poker tables all day and night, one may need to do something extremely different. It is a great rush when one wins it big at the craps tables but there are plenty of other thrills in the city of Las Vegas. There are other ways to get into the game and get some movement. Get a different kind of adrenaline rush. One could head over for some roller coast action, there are a couple of hotels that feature some great rides. But what else is out there?
How about an amazing zip line adventure? You’re going to have to take a short drive off the strip to strap in for a thrilling zip ride off top of a desert mountain, down a canyon and land at the base. This is the first zip line put together in Nevada and it is fun. This is special adventure as you get the flight path of a bird diving from the top of a mountain to the ground. The only effort you put in is screaming, at first and then laughing with awe in the middle and end. Visitors are are strapped into a paragliding harness and then attached to cables. They push you off the mountain top and you zip glide down the cables in untraveled territory. You aren’t on a dirt trail, you are dangling from the cables above a beautiful canyon and moving at a good speed. You get to see great views of lakes, mountains and the city of Las Vegas in the distance. Truly amazing. Bootleg Canyon Flightlines is were the fun is at.
