  • Riding around the once submerged land surrounding Lake Mead can be pretty amusing, during this adventure we stumble upon more than a few cool artifacts.
    I filmed the 'Three kids Mine" that we visited at the end of this video in the link below.

      ​​​@@Helix.. 40 years it'll be full again. You have wet spells and dry spells, it's natural. We're coming into the cold and dry spell that happens around every thousand years, it'll be bad for a while and it'll go back to normal. Cow farts and car emissions have so little impact on anything that in the last 120 years the temperature has raised a fraction of a degree at most, it's negligible.
      If global warming is real with the oceans rising, then why do politicians buy oceanfront property? Why does Al Gore still have an oceanfront mansion? Why do banks still loan on oceanfront property if the homes will be underwater? Banks exist to make money, not lose it. None of it makes sense.

    My memory of race fuel wasn't for jet skis, it was for stock cars at the Bullring, but every Sunday when I was at my dad's house we'd come out here. We'd get Sonic from i don't remember if it was Henderson or Boulder City, but we'd come out in his Impala convertible. Buy popcorn from one of the shops and then feed the carp in the lake and see who was out and around.
    I've been moved away from Vegas for a little more than 10 years now, but your exploration videos always instill such nostalgia. Thank you for making them!

      Addendum, I spent from the 60s into just after the fee gates. Gripentrog Marina was my home launch ramp. Also known as Las Vegas Bay Marina that is now stationed at Hemenway. Spent a lot of the 70s at the ski races at Special Events Beach, lot of the 80s either at Roadrunner Cove or up around the corner in Bonelli Bay just after the Narrows. And we packed out more garbage than we originally hauled in on the boat.

    I enjoyed the aerobic roller coaster part! l I'm not a drone flyer but I have a question. When there are other people in the area with drones that you don't know, how do you coordinate so there aren't any crashes? Seems to me it could be tragic. For the drones anyway.
