Hiking At Lake Mead
History of Lake MeadLake Mead, established as a national recreation area in 1964, was created when the Hoover Dam, which includes about 4.4 million cubic yards of concrete, was constructed along the Colorado River. The region was once populated by Native Americans,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but as railroads began to be built in the area during the gold rush,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more white residents began to settle there. Eventually, companies sought to harness the power of the Colorado River to build large-scale irrigation projects. The 1902 Reclamation Act led to the building of the Hoover Dam in 1931,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which subsequently formed Lake Mead. Today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], millions of visitors come to the lake to enjoy swimming, water-skiing and hiking around the lake's perimeter.
Getting ThereAs Lake Mead National Recreation Area includes nine access points (Ref.6),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you can take several routes to get to the lake. In Nevada, this includes entrance points at the northern end of the recreation area in the Valley of Fire State Park and Muddy Mountains. Near the lake's western shoreline, entrance points can be accessed in Las Vegas Bay off of State Route 147, Lake Mead Parkway and in Boulder Beach. For a more picturesque drive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], take the North Shore Scenic drive to the lake's western shoreline, which goes past Callville Bay, Echo Bay and Overton Beach. From Las Vegas,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], take Interstate 15,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and make a right turn onto Lake Mead Boulevard. In about 12 miles,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you'll see signs for the North Shore Road, Highway 167.
Fees and WeatherTo hike around Lake Mead, you will need to pay an entrance fee at one of the recreational area's entrance points. At the time of publication,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], individual fees for hikers are $5. The best time to hike in the area is during the cooler fall and spring months of November through March; as temperatures can reach a scorching 120 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hiking is not recommended in the daytime during summer. If you're unfamiliar with the area, ranger-led hikes are also offered year-round. Wear a wide-rim hat to protect your face from the sun, sunglasses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sturdy sneakers and sunblock higher than SPF 15. Also, bring snacks, water and a map; items like a flashlight and first-aid kid are highly recommended.
HikesThe two maintained hiking trails at Lake Mead are River Mountain Loop Trail and the Historic Railroad Trail. At the time of publication,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the River Mountains Loop Trail extends for about 32 miles -- it will be about 35 miles when completed -- and winds through the Lake Mead Recreational Area, Hoover Dam and the Las Vegas Valley. The access point to the trailhead in Lake Mead is near the Alan Bible Visitor Center, parallel to Boulder Beach. The Historic Railroad Tunnel Trail is a monument to the six railroad firms that built about 30 miles of railroad tracks that once connected Hoover Dam to Boulder City. It includes old pioneer roads and disused tunnels about 25 feet in diameter; the trailhead starts near Hoover Dam. You can also try one of the many unmaintained hiking trails in the area. North Shore Summit Trail is a 0.6-mile ascending loop trail that includes panoramic views over the jagged,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mountainous ledges. It should not be used as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. LIVESTRONG is a registered trademark of the LIVESTRONG Foundation.
