Sixty years before the first lights of Las Vegas lit up the desert night, 3,000 miners, prospectors, gunfighters and entrepreneurs built a town in the desert called Goodsprings. For a while they prospered, finding gold and silver in the nearby mountains. Then, they vanished!

Hop on board for this outstanding Hummer tour that will take you to this historic mining district. Thrill at the breathtaking view of the valleys sprinkled with desert plants as you ascend to 5,000 feet. Your guide will tell fascinating stories of determined men who risked their lives searching for riches in this unforgiving desert. Photograph the remains of their camps and mines deserted long ago. There is time for rock hunting and searching for gold!!!

The powerful Hummer will carry you through lava fields between mountains destroyed by volcanic activity. See strange ruins left by an ancient civilization, men who hunted here 1,000 years before the Spanish came. In the "almost ghost town" of Goodsprings the oldest schoolhouse and saloon in southern Nevada are still open for business. Keep your cameras ready - you may encounter Big Horn Sheep, Wild Burros, Mustangs and even the elusive Kit Fox!

See the memorial to Clark Gable's wife, whose plane crashed on Mount Potosi in 1942. Learn the history of this old mining town, turned almost ghost town and why it's called Goodsprings from your knowledgeable driver-guide.

This is one adventure you won't soon forget!
