Bootleg Canyon Flightlines

I don't know about doing this myself but I bet a lot of you would be interested. It's called Bootleg Canyon Flightlines. It is where you can ride a zip-line, thousands of feet above the ground.

The zip-lines take you on a tour to see the beautiful desert and the mountain terrain. They say you feel like you are a bird soaring through the sky.

How the zip-lines work is you are harnessed into your own paragliding harness. You go from one point to the next suspended from the cable wires. They say you can go as fast as 50 mph! There are four different routes to take, choose one or choose them all.

If you have a fear of heights (as I do) they say this will cure it forever.

You have to weigh at least 75 pounds to do this and weigh no more than 250 pounds.

It costs $149.00 to do. They will even give you a ride from Bally's or Excalibur.

There is no way I would do that. I am scared to death of heights. I would freak out if I had to do that. Me and my hubby watches that show, amazing race and the stuff they have to do, I always tell my hubby, show over for us. We would have to leave. LOL!!!
