Default Re: Walking from Boulder Station to the Rio?

I was half-tempted to make a 'Walking from the Rio to the Rio. Is it doable?' thread.

But I think that would be very un-mod-like of me.


I don't know where Boulder Station is but I'm always looking for incentives/reasons to stay in shape.
If it's 5 miles or less I'll take you up on that $50 IF I'm able to make it out there during the WSOP (still undetermined)

I think it's in Boulder, which is by the Hoover Dam. So you should bet $5000, not $50 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

No, it's on Boulder Highway maybe 1/2 mile north of Flamingo. You'd walk to flamingo and then walk about 8 miles (?) to the Rio. Definitely "doable" but I'd need a lot more than $50!

11.06 Miles according to this map, although you won't want to walk the highway, lol. This is the fastest driving trip. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i want to bet somebody from mapquest that they can't do that drive in 12 minutes during the daytime (either DI all the way to Valley View or the Freeway).

Btw, Boulder Station has a sweet lunch special at the mexican restaurant. 2-item combo with a maragarita or soda for $8. And the salsa bar is good!
