He was patient and kind with every customer. Our cashier was equally fantastic, taking the time to make sure we got the best deals possible.

Instead of falling for the standard store-wide discount, look closer at the "Manager Deals" posted around the shop. You can find much better value there, like getting 70% off your total when you purchase a qualifying item for $6.99 or more.

One of the gal's accompanied us up and down the aisles helping us pick out everything we wanted. I think her name was Janine. It was so nice having a knowledgeable personal shopper. She had a great personality and was wonderful with our 5 year old granddaughter. When we checked out we were expecting to pay a $5.00 fee, but the cashier told us we didn't have to because the fireworks we were purchasing weren't illegal in Las Vegas. We bought similar items last year at Red Apple Fireworks, but they charged us that $5.00. We will definitely go back to Black Jack next year, and we'll recommend them to our friends, as well.

Pahrump has one public pool and it's in Petrack Park....and for the price, it's a deal. It's 50…read morecents admission per person. Yes, 50 cents. A few things to note... 1. There is minimal shaded area...I mean, imagine minimal and it's even smaller. I think 10 pool chairs (not lounge chairs) fit there...maybe less. There's plenty of seating, just not in the shaded area. 2. The lifeguards are on top of things. Score! 3. The pool isn't heated but you don't need that in June. It's Vegas weather...so the pool is 'naturally' heated in June. ;) 4. Locker rooms are clean 5. Parking is easy 6. No diving board 7. They have a 'baby' pool for the little kids This was a fun activity for my kids and myself when we went to visit family. Recommend!

Also part of the festival was a vintage car show in the far parking lot, and what a cool sight to see! Who knew that Pahrump was a hot bed for vinyage cars????? The majority of entrants were locals from Pahrump, with a few coming from nearby states, but just hearing the owners talk shop about their "babies" was great. One owner had a collection of 5 cars in the car show, and every one of them were in such pristine condition! We perused the various vendors that were also on hand and also kicked it with some of the animals that were there too. Very cool place to relax and unwind while exploring Pahrump. Come out to next year's Balloon Festival! ALOHA!!! Shaka Meter: \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ \uuu/ 4

This is one of the cleanest and nicest state parks that we have been to. The Visitor Center is absolutely awesome. They have clean bathrooms outside. They have a great gift shop. And they have fun things for the kids to do inside as well. The art on the window, where you have to look through a panel that looks like sunglasses was my absolute favorite. I am still in awe of it. The woman who works there was so very helpful to tell us about which hikes to go to and what would be the right level of hikes for our family. The man who was sitting there was also very kind and let my son pet his dog. I would absolutely go back when visiting Las Vegas!

This place is perfect for a nice walk through the garden a picnic or even a hike. The historic ranch adds a nice touch, with great photos and views. I found that this place is less crowded compared to all the other parks and outdoor scenic areas that we've been visiting.. definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a peaceful escape away from the city. Also, while you're here don't forget to check out the little gift shop which offers a variety of sweet treats, such as chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate covered marshmallows, and so much more, which are all delicious.

We saw this place in a book about hot springs and we were in Death Valley, so we thought "what the…read morehell, let's do it." We came in from the Lippincott Pass road, which was terrifying in its own right. Once we got to the bottom of that and into the valley, it seemed there was nothing around for miles (which we found out is 100% correct). We took a mostly stock 4Runner with good tires and we did fine getting there. *MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EXTRA WATER, FOOD, FUEL, AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU MIGHT NEED IN A REMOTE ENVIRONMENT* IT GETS EXTREMELY HOT IN THE SUMMER AND FLASH FLOODS CAN WREAK HAVOC DURING THE OTHER SEASONS SO ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! We had no cell service 97% of the drive in Saline Valley. The road is severely washboarded though, so it's very annoying to ride on. We missed the turn into the springs, but luckily the book had a map so we only had to turn around once to find the entrance. Once we got into the spring area itself, we noticed it was a lot more popular than we had anticipated (it was a Friday night, of that makes any difference). We found a camp spot and set up as it was starting to get a little late into the afternoon. The wind started picking up, so bad that sleeping in a tent was a nightmare. We got up in the morning and watched the sunrise then decided to go down to the first set of springs you pass by when entering the area. It was absolutely beautiful! There was a lush, green lawn, a shower or bath for cleaning before heading into the springs, and even a wash basin for dishes! It wasn't crowded when we went in and I decided to let loose and embraced some of the "clothing optional" rules. It was a great hot spring with lots of friendly people. However, YOU WILL SEE LOTS OF NAKED PEOPLE! If you are afraid of someone else's nude body, I suggest you skip the area because the drive wouldn't be worth it for pretty much nothing. If you have a decent 4x4 and want to try something different, for sure come and check it out. Please just be respectful of the people that "live" there and take care of the place. It takes a team to make somewhere like that function well!

We spent two days, including one night…read morecamping, in the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area (NRA) which includes Mount Charleston. Administered by the US Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, the entrance is just 17 miles from Hwy 95 on Rte 157 or 45 minutes (and a world away) from the hustle and bustle - and heat - of the Las Vegas strip. Sunday. We started at the Visitor Gateway, where there are helpful staff and maps to help you to plan your stay. In addition, there is a gift shop, clean restrooms, an amphitheater, picnic areas, and trailheads to the Pack Rat Route and the Escarpment Trails. Next on our itinerary were a pair of scenic drives. From the Visitors Gateway, we traveled a short distance on Rte 157, until intersecting with Rte 158, which took us up the windy mountain road. We passed the entrances to The Resort on Mount Charleston, various trailheads, picnic areas, and campgrounds. We stopped at the Desert View Overlook, walking the short interpretive trail and taking photos. We continued in Rte 158 until we intersected with Rte 156, which we took left to the Lee Canyon ski area, passing picnic areas, campgrounds, and trailheads along the way. We then turned around, and went back down the mountain. Upon again intersecting with Rte 157, we took it to its terminus at the Mount Charleston Lodge. Our final destination was our campsite at the Fletcher View Campground (reviewed separately). Monday. We returned to the Visitors Gateway, and did the two "more difficult" hikes that originated there -- the Pack Rat Route (only 0.4 mi) is short, paved, and very steep. If you do it as a loop, the trail is somewhat washed out towards the end. Pack Rat connected to the 2.4 mile Escarpment Trail, which takes you above the cliffs and to some wonderful mountain views. Both of these trails are for hiking only. No bikes or horses. Some things to note: *The Visitors Gateway provides a good map of the area which I've posted a Yelp (in Spanish). It shows trails (including hiking, cycling, equestrian, and interpretative), campgrounds, picnic areas, restrooms, etc. *The map also highlights the trails in the NRA, with ratings of easy to moderate to more difficult to most difficult. It also provides distances, but not elevation changes. *When we were there (May, 2024), at least 6 trails, including the popular Mary Jane Falls Trail, were closed due to storm damage.
