Day 1 :

Watch The Old West come to life!

As one of Ten State Parks You Can't Miss, the colorful history of the Old West comes to life in Eldorado Canyon, home to the famed Historical Techatticup Mine. It's the oldest, richest and most famous gold mine in Southern Nevada. Located just 45 minutes outside of glamorous Las Vegas.

On the short journey to this rustic site, you'll enjoy spectacular scenery: fields of teddy bear cholla, rare geologic formations, and an excellent photo opportunity down near the banks of Lake Mojave, the blue jewel of this isolated desert terrain.

On your professionally guided tour of the mine you'll envision the back-breaking work done by prospectors over a century ago as they chased gold veins deep into this rugged mountainside, and hear tales of yesteryear's gunfights and lawlessness that were the rule in this frontier territory.
