You'll have a leisure morning with more time to shop or ride the
Desperado roller coaster, one of the tallest roller coasters in North
America. After lunch, you'll travel back to Las Vegas where you'll
experience some more of the new Las Vegas attractions before your
afternoon drop at your convention hotel. After your early afternoon
arrival toLas Vegas, travel to Mesquite, Nevada for a look at its
humble pioneer beginnings and how it has advanced into a
world-renowned golf resort destination. After a dayof travelling, a
stay in Mesquite wouldn't be complete without a visit to the spa, a
fine dining experience, and your first chance to meet and play at the
tables with Lady Luck.

visit to the red sandstone formations of the Valley of Fire State
Park, Nevada's oldest and largest state park. Then you'll travel the
Lake Mead Adventure Parkway toward Boulder City …the only city in
Nevada where gambling is illegal. Boulder City is the home of Hoover
Dam and the newest attraction to the area, the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat
Tillman Memorial Bridge, the longest arch-suspension bridge in North
America. Your afternoon will hold some thrilling photographic options
for you before you are wined and dined in the "City that Hoover Dam

The Mike O'Callaghan – Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge , the key component
to the Hoover Dam Bypass project, was the first concrete-steel
composite arch bridge built in the United States , and it incorporates
the widest concrete arch in the Western Hemisphere . Opened on October
19, 2010, this four-lane highway bridge provides a crossing of the
Colorado River for U.S. Route 93 , linking Nevada with Arizona about
1,600 feet (about 500 meters) downstream from the Hoover Dam . This
bridge is located about 30 miles (48 kilometers) southeast of Las
Vegas, Nevada . At 840 feet (260 meters) above the Colorado River,
this bridge is the second-highest in the United States , following the
Royal Gorge Bridge . Built as part of the Hoover Dam Bypass Project,
which was successfully completed within budget at a cost of $240
million, the bridge portion cost $114 million (2010 prices) but
further connectors have been placed on hold from Presidential VETO of
further funding into Interstate 11 - The bypass was constructed to
improve safety, security, and traffic capacity. [ 5 ] Through
extensive studies, this bridge routewas determined to be the best
route for the bypass.
U.S. Highway 93, in conjunction with U.S. Highway 60 via Wickenburg,
Arizona , is the primary highway between Phoenix, Arizona , and Las
Vegas, Nevada , two cities that have seen great increases in
population since the completion of the Hoover Dam. The section of U.S.
93 that approachedand crossed Hoover Dam was not adequate for modern
traffic needs.It was too narrow, with just one lane in each direction,
it had many dangerous curves, including several hairpin turns , and it
had poor lines-of-sight, especially at night.
Through highway traffic combined with sightseeing and pedestrian
traffic at the dam, the traffic often came to a standstill. As a
consequence of the heightened security measures following the
September 11 attacks , truck traffic over the Hoover Dam was diverted
south to a bridge crossing the river at Laughlin, Nevada , in aneffort
to safeguard the dam from hazardous spills or explosions. The new
bypass and the bridge are intended to improve travel times, replace
the dangerous roadway, and reduce the possibility of an attack or an
accident at the site ofthe dam .
More than 17,000 cars and trucks are using the new bridge daily, a
number expected to grow by 50 percent over the next 20 years. [ 6 ]
This bridge was is a key component of the proposed Interstate 11
project. [ 7
