The streets of Vegas are filled with people, on the move, light blinking, the sounds of the machines echoing out of the doors, as they open by men in suits.

Spending time in Vegas for us as climbers seems like a bit of a waist of time. Big time! We look at it as its something you have to do if you go to Vegas. Rent a room with a few people, everyone takes turns having a shower, off to the all you can eat buffets, and then to drinking some beers and playing a bit of slots, of black jack, whatever. We managed to limit our spending to 20$ US, and that was pushing it. Twenty bucks will last ya a couple of days in the desert.
