The Building of Bootleg Canyon Flightlines
Learn about what it took to make the Bootleg Canyon Flightlines project come together
[+enlarge]
The View
The first step in designing a great flightline is to find the perfect view. Here, you can see beautiful Lake Mead off in the distance, as the desert dusk falls on Boulder City. The view from the top of Red Mountain is fabulous. You can actually see Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder City, and Lake Mead all in one spot.

Months of Exhaustive Labor
Here, we see workers drilling down over 30 feet into the mountain for the anchors of each cable. The flightlines range from 300 feet to 3000 feet, and your flightline adventure includes all of them!

The Load-In
Because of the remote location, most of the material had to be brought in by helicopter. Helicopters were also used to lay out a lot of the massive 2 inch cable that had to be strung from the launch portals to the landing portals.

Multiple Flightlines
As you can see from the photo on the left, the Bootleg Canyon Flightlines Adventure is not just one line, but five (5) flightlines! Your first launch is from the training line on the bottom to make sure you are comfortable, and then you are taken to the top of the mountain to begin your adventure!
