Go Back

The first leg of two leg vacation started as a shooting vacation and some siteseeing.  Flying into Las Vegas and renting a vehicle we headed north to Mesquitte Nevada.   Nevada is an amazing place and we will be be back! Here's some of our favorite pics to give ya a feel of the time we had.

 

2004 F150. Nice truck! White seems to be the color of choice for vehicles out here...

A bit of open road to try out the V8... Yep Works good at 100 Mph!

Our Oasis in the desert. The Casablanca hotel and resort

Looks good from the outside. Neat and clean on the inside as well. It wasnt a 5 star, but it was very reasonable for the price

Took a drive to get our first glimpse of the shooting range (in the back behind the moto-cross track)

Day 2 we explored the desert. Off through the Valley of Fire and headed towards Hoover Dam.

As far as the eyes can see

This boy is confused. Parked in the middle of the desert... We still cant figre out what it was...

Ford commercial... "Have YOU driven a Ford lately?"

Incredible views

Valley of Fire

and Yes it really was this red!

Road to nowhere

Water! We found water!

Guess where...

Down to the bottom

The white marks (calcium carbonate) shows the hardness of the water and the high water mark for years ago. The water was low, but not that low

Spillways on the left and right of the dam

Lets get down to business! Day three at the Oasis Shooting Range

looking down the parking lot as you enter the range. Clubs to the left, several trap and skeet ranges to the right

5 stand too!

We start with some trap after meeting some new friends

Not sure we like this voice activated stuff! Had tostop in the middle of the shoot to fix a problem

Off to the sporting clays range. Too fun!

She looks like a pro!

Stand 6. Better than the 5th station for sure. Everyone had a problem with that one!

Station 9 over the duck pond and literally over the ducks as well

Shots are coming into you from a distance and drop quickly once in range. Break out the full chokes!

Station 10 against the cliff. Another tough shot

Heads up!

Crazy wood ducks. We shot right over them and they could care less!

Shots of the clays range

Tumbleweeds!

Motocross track in front of the range.

This guy doesnt need any wings

More killer views

Great vacation! We will be back
