Only In Nevada

Untamed, unspoiled, and gloriously rough around the edges. Welcome to your next adventure.

Nevada is a lot of things at the same time. Neon-buzzing boulevards and wide-open roads. Spectacular stage shows and star-studded skies. The most right-now art and million-year-old rock formations. Glitz. Glam. Grit. And endless surprises. The point is, whether you’re in the mood to swank it up at the planet’s best resorts, seek solitude at some of the nation’s most secluded and breathtaking parks, or simply let the road lead you to your life’s most exciting, unpredicted, and unwritten next chapters, your heart and mind are in the exact right state: the Silver State. In other words: Welcome to Nevada.

Highlights
  • 600+ Ghost Towns—More Than “Live” Ones
  • Basque Dinner Houses and Sagebrush Saloons
  • Oddball Attractions and Far-Out Art

Topa! Basque-ing in Nevada Culture

Hailing from a mountainous, New Jersey-sized region straddling France and Spain, the Basque people came first for the gold and then later for the sheepherding. Those who stayed in Nevada held onto their culture and that spirit remains vibrant throughout Nevada today.

Seasons in Nevada

Nevada is a land of extremes. And the weather is no exception. The peak-studded, high-desert north is known for warm days and sharply cooling nights. Meanwhile, the arid, low-desert south temperatures can teeter into triple-digit territory on the reg. And, believe it or not, it can rain or snow literally any time. Anywhere. That’s why the real pros roll with a down jacket over their bikini and pack both flip-flops and boots. So let us walk you through how to navigate the weather around here. One season at a time.

Early mornings with @travelnevada & @discovery on Pyramid Lake.
#ElvisLives! Here he is hanging out on #gururoad. We'll be visiting him on April 28 to clean up his #cape and take care of his neighbors. What's your favorite piece of #folkart? #fbrhr #blackrockdesert #elvis #theking #graceland #doobielane #gerlach #northernnevada #burnerbyway
Pyramid lake is not all ladders and shoulder to shoulder fishing
It's time to apply for tickets to tour this gorgeous freak. Fly Geyser, not far from the putty-colored playa known as Black Rock Desert, is a technicolor blend of iron (red), sulfate (yellow), and algae (yup, the green crud) on private property in northern Nevada. It was born in 1964 when the drill from a geothermal company accidentally exposed it. After 55 years, it's getting a little taller and a touch lovelier by the year. Details and ticket info at blackrockdesert.org/fly-geyser

“Bright Biggest Little” 
It’s going to be a BEAUTIFUL weekend in the Biggest Little City! With so many great spots to explore, it’s hard to choose a favorite. For me, it’s the overlook at Bartley Ranch Regional Park  and the “Nevada” pasture: rustic beauty in the heart of the city. Can’t beat it! 
So the question is: Where are you going to explore this weekend? 
Happy Friday and have a great weekend everybody!

Is this ‘Reel’ Life?!?! 🎣⠀
.⠀
Fishing Pyramid Lake has been high up on Josh’s fishing spot bucket list for years... among way too many other lakes, rivers and streams 😒. Now, after years of it sitting at the top of that list, we finally crossed it off! ⠀
.⠀
And boy, fish it we did... well Josh fished the hell out of it, Cass just fished when she felt like it 😜⠀
