Hemenway Valley Park
Lake Mead views and a chance to spot wild bighorn sheep make this small Boulder City park a memorable stop. The sheep keep their own schedule.
There is also a playground, picnic shelter space and a nature trail with interpretive signs. It makes a good pause during a Boulder City outing, even when the sheep are elsewhere.
When to go
Plan a daylight visit; the city’s RamCam lets you look for sheep before heading over.
