Undersea Explorer VR Theater

Have you ever dreamed of swimming with a humpback whale in Tonga or diving next to a 15-foot tiger shark in the Bahamas? Now's the time to make that dream a reality. . . virtually.

A 36-seat motion-platform VR theater is at the heart of the experience. Put on your headset, sit back in the motion seats and be immersed in a world of undersea adventure. 360º 3-D virtual reality technology transports you to the South Pacific where a marine biologist takes you on a live-action journey to the nurturing grounds of the humpback whales, where you swim side-by-side with mother humpbacks and their new-born calves. Or if excitement is on your agenda, dive with tiger sharks and great hammerheads in the turquoise waters of Tiger Beach in the Bahamas.

A fully-realized experience that can be enjoyed by the whole family, the Undersea Explorer VR Theater engages the guest from its very start with an immersive and entertaining pre-show area, where guest learn about sharks and whales.

Take a selfie in the hyper-realistic shark cage, learn about the amazing anatomy of the humpback whale, track the movement real-time of sharks around the world and learn the secrets of the humpback whale songs, all as you prepare for your virtual adventure.

Included with Shark Reef Aquarium & Undersea Explorer package. VR films for ages 5 and older, younger children can enter the exhibit but must be accompanied by an adult. During VR experience children under 5 will need to rotate with a guardian or parent.

Moderate Hike

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Lake Mead National Recreation Area charges a fee to enter. Fees are $25 per vehicle or $20 per motorcycle. If you are entering on foot or bike the fee is $15 per person. You can also purchase a park specific annual pass for $45. This trail is closed in the summer (May 15 - Sept 30) because it is too hot. It is also recommended you leave dogs at home. For more information, please see https://www.nps.gov/lake/learn/news/goldstrike-canyon-arizona-hot-spring-trails-summer-closure-dates.htm A strenuous hike through a wonderful canyon to some hot springs pools. This hike is one of a kind. There are 8 fixed ropes if you go all the way to the river. Some are difficult - especially when coming back up. At the 1.5 mile point of the hike you come to the first obstacle - a large boulder with what looks like a nasty drop off. If you look at the rock wall to your right, you'll see some steps. There is a strap here to help you down the steps. Coming back, you really don't need the strap although it will give those who want some security an aid to come back up. A short distance after this, the wash opens into its widest of the hike, and several washes come together. Keep walking down and you'll come to the next rope. This goes down the left side of the rock wall and isn't too difficult to maneuver. You just need to use the rope as intended and walk down backwards while moving down the rope. There is one other slight work around in this area. There's a dry fall that some slide down. There is a blue arrow painted on the rocks to the left of the chute showing you how to walk around and down this dry fall. After you have cleared these obstacles, you arrive at what once was the Upper Goldstrike Hot Springs pools. Sadly, most have dried up. There are a few pools farther down that still have water, but you'll see the remnants of the pools that no longer have any source for filling. The rest has 5 fixed ropes, the last being a bit difficult, especially when you're coming back and you have those wet boots. This trail can be too strenuous for dogs.

I thought to myself, I've been giving for years, but there's so much more to be done. So I picked up a paint brush, recruited my neighbors, and we worked to rebuild a community center. It was awesome.
Jack E.

United Way connected me with the elementary school down the street, and I started reading once a week on my lunch break. I wanted to give of myself to help others, what I didn't expect was how rewarding it would be for me.

RETRIEVER RESCUE OF LAS VEGAS

It was us. We let the dogs out!

Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers are at high risk in certain countries. These breeds live in horrid conditions and are cruelly tortured by meat farms. They are not simply food for the hungry; they are considered a high-priced delicacy. We are determined to stop the cruelty and bring them to loving furever homes.

RRLV works directly with international rescuers who vet and screen each dog. They receive temperment testing and medical care prior to traveling to the US. Our goal is to match each rescue with a foster or furever home prior to their travel.

We need your help. Consider Adopting, Donating or Sponsoring. We are 100% volunteer-based and depend on your help to continue. Help us let the dogs out!

I have always suffered from stress and anxiety. Now when that anxious feeling comes on, I take a moment to breath and be present. Since being introduced to this breathing necklace, I am able to keep these feelings of stress under control. I feel more calm, mindful and in control of myself.
