Title: LA to Vegas Post by: Rocket Ron on June 04, 2015, 21:03:28 pm We've booked to go to the classic but we have a few days after before we head home and were thinking of heading to Vegas
Is there a " best route " that would take in some sites on the way and is there anything round Vegas worth seeing Thanks in advance Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: Lids on June 05, 2015, 09:47:21 am there is a little thing called the grand canyon ;)
worth a trip in a helicopter. You get to land at the bottom! Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: benssp on June 05, 2015, 11:10:38 am The Vans outlet shop at Barstow ;D

Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: richie on June 05, 2015, 20:49:49 pm How many days you got Ron? you can go the long way round, up to Yosemite, down to death valley and across to vegas the back way in, quite a journey but well worth it as the normal route is mainly just freeway

How many days you got Ron? you can go the long way round, up to Yosemite, down to death valley and across to vegas the back way in, quite a journey but well worth it as the normal route is mainly just freeway only got two and a half days Richie.

Yosemite is beautiful, but if it's on a weekend I'd avoid it. Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: Rocket Ron on June 07, 2015, 23:11:48 pm Shelby museum is north Vegas, near the racetrack. Yosemite is beautiful, but if it's on a weekend I'd avoid it. Found the museum on the net Looks like it's made the list ! Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: Rick Meredith on June 08, 2015, 21:36:58 pm Yeah Red Rock is worth the drive. My wife and I make it a point of picking a trail to hike there every time we go the Vegas
Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: Rocket Ron on June 08, 2015, 22:44:17 pm There's some fantastic images of red rock on the Internet :o
Title: Re: LA to Vegas Post by: nlvtinman on June 09, 2015, 00:23:19 am The Shelby Museum has moved to the south side of town. Certainly worth your time. To totally agree with Keith, Red Rock Canyon is amazing. It's a little hot here in LV today-100*, and possible thunderstorms for later in the week, so weather plays into what you might wish to go do.
