Блумінгтонський парк петрогліфів

Багато з цих різьблених зображень можна впізнати як форми людей і тварин і, можливо, ранні карти стежки. Допоможіть нам зберегти цю унікальну та крихку культурну спадщину.

Державний парк «Долина вогню».

Державний парк «Вогняна долина» — це громадська зона відпочинку та природоохоронна територія, що охоплює майже 46 000 акрів (19 000 га), розташована в 16 милях (26 км) на південь від Овертона, штат Невада. Свою назву державний парк отримав від утворень червоного пісковика, ацтекського пісковика, який утворений з рухомих піщаних дюн 150 мільйонів років тому. Ці об’єкти, які є центральною частиною атракціонів парку, часто здаються палаючими, коли відбивають сонячні промені. Це найстаріший державний парк штату Невада, який відзначений історичним маркером штату Невада №150. У 1968 році він був визнаний національним природним пам’ятником.

Музей загубленого міста

Музей загубленого міста, спочатку відомий як Музей парку Боулдер-Дам, був побудований у 1935 році членами Корпусу цивільної охорони. Служба національних парків створила музей, щоб виставити артефакти, вилучені з місцевих доісторичних археологічних пам’яток, більшість з яких були затоплені, коли річку Колорадо перекрили дамбою, щоб утворити озеро Мід. Раніше на руїни звернули увагу губернатора Невади Джеймса Скрагама в 1924 році два брати з Овертона – Фей і Джон Перкінс. Губернатор заручився допомогою відомого археолога М. Р. Харінгтона, який на той час співпрацював з Музеєм американських індіанців, щоб керувати розкопками на територіях до завершення будівництва Боулдер Дамби. Харрінгтон визнав важливість цих місць і назвав їх Pueblo Grande de Nevada. Розкопки почалися в 1924 році і тривали безперервно до 1938 року. Зачинено по понеділках і вівторках.
