Welcome to Nevada's
Cowboy Country.
Following in the footsteps
of the early settlers that
traveled across Nevada in
Wagon Trains, visitors will
find the Cowboy Country a
diverse and fascinating land
rich in the legends, lore and
customs of the Old West.
"Beyond the sage, sand and scrub...
...resides the soul of a bygone era"
THE OLD WEST AS IT WAS MEANT TO BE
We call it "Cowboy Country," but it is so much more than that.
It is a place where powerful jets and majestic bald eagles cross the sky over some of the richest gold mines on earth.
Where blazing casino lights give way to an astonishing pantheon of stars
in two minutes' driving time.
Where long emerald fairways invite the duffer and felt emerald tables beckon the gamer.
A place where Native American Indians proudly participate in traditional cultural activities and where ruts from the emigrants wagons are permanently embedded in the desert terrain.
Where the lonesome train whistle and the clacking of the tracks still are heard, and still inspire.
A place where you can dream as big as you like, even as you gaze at the awesome curvature of the earth, and feel as small as you ever will.
And, oooh yes, it's Cowboy Country. One of the last cattle empires left in the West, where lariats still fly, horses still run free, and hot brands burn with the pride of heritage.
