The El Dorado Canyon area is about a 30 – 45 minute drive from Las Vegas, near Nelson, NV.  It leads to the Colorado river and is in an area with immense natural beauty.  The Techatticup Mine area is a former gold mine…one of the biggest producing gold mines in history, beginning operations in 1861.  It’s now a tourist area, with much of the old equipment and buildings still around.  It’s been used as a location for several TV shows, movies and music videos, but can also be used for weddings, etc.  They offer tours deep into the old mines and supplies for canoeing on the way to the Colorado river.
