Event information
The Historic Boulder Dam Hotel was a center of activity during Hoover Dam construction. Boulder City is the first government master planned community in the U.S., and does not permit gambling. The first part of the walk goes thru downtown and the original residential areas. Many homes date from the 1930s. Some are in near-original condition; some have been renovated. Restaurants and gift shops are plentiful along Nevada Way. Look for outdoor sculptures along the route. The 10K walk goes to the Nevada State Railroad Museum, with static exhibits and a model railroad museum.
