Why Are Trails Important?
(by American Hiking Society, 1999)

"The River Mountains Loop Trail, approximately 35 miles in length, will surround the River Mountains connecting Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Hoover Dam, Henderson, Boulder City and the rest of the Las Vegas Valley, expanding recreational and alternative transportation opportunities for the region’s growing population.   In many sections of the trail the trail will be 24 feet wide with a twelve foot paved trail for hikers and bikers and a second trail for horses with a third trail for mountain bikers.
