Before the time when EaW was born a small team of Westwood explorers try to enjoy theyr free time and explore the past history of their desert land.

 

They look into Las Vegas history :

 

Las Vegas has a rich history and geography that includes Indians, early pioneers, snowcapped mountains, mining, railroads, ranching, spectacular rock formations, mining, gambling, mobsters, nuclear testing, mining, wild horses, rivers, lakes, and last but not least, mining. Mining for silver and gold, that is. Las Vegas in 1952. The town was still small back then, but the "Strip" was beginning to grow. Ever since construction workers moved to Las Vegas, it just hasn't stopped growing. Now there are plenty of adventures available right in town -- even if you aren't yet 21 years old. However, the miniquests dealt with here have to do with adventures in the surrounding wilderness.

They also explore the Wilderness :

 

Looking at a map of the area surrounding Las Vegas reveals place names such as Deadman Canyon, Green Monster Mine, Opal Field, Fossil Ridge, Robber's Cave, Fort Pahute, and Gold Butte. How can anyone resist exploring these sites?In addition to sight seeing around Las Vegas, there is the opportunity to explore old mining claims, ghost towns, and even participate in a bit of gold panning.A few of these adventures have been documented here in the hopes that you may find them amusing.

 

I believe the best places in the EaW will be the deserts.

I put videos of some of the trips to Google videos so my poor low-bandwidth server wouldn't get crushed.
