“I THINK YOUR LUNCH IS BLOCKING OUT THE SUN.” Reno Tahoe USA is redefining the art of dining. You’ve heard the expression “So hungry I could eat a cow.” Test the theory at the Little Nugget Diner in Reno with an Awful Awful burger and the one pound of fries that go with it, rated the best by the Travel Channel No. 1. For a breakfast that threatens to eliminate all future meals, check out the Squeeze In for the best omelets on the planet – worthy of a throwdown with Food Network’s Bobby Flay No. 2, or Peg’s Glorified Ham & Eggs, named the Best Breakfast in America by Esquire No. 3. A trip down 4th Street offers the best locals experience at Louis’ Basque Corner, with family-style dining and the legendary Picon punch that’ll knock you on your derriere in one fell swoop No. 4.

“DO YOU? DO YOU? KISS HER. DONE.” No. 5 Weddings in Reno chapels can be quick, easy and inexpensive. Hopefully, not the same descriptive for the marriage.
“IS IT STILL CALLED A NIGHTCLUB IF THE SUN’S UP?” THE EDGE NIGHTCLUB – INSIDE THE PEPPERMILL RESORT SPA CASINO, 2707 SOUTH VIRGINIA STREET • RENO, NEVADA 89502
No. 6 The hottest club in Reno has the area’s best dance parties, including weekly salsa lessons with dance-offs. All-nighters come standard.
“THE AFTERLIFE OF THE PARTY.” THE STATE CAPITAL IS 33 MILES SOUTH OF RENO ALONG HWY 395.
No. 7 The Carson City Ghost Walk is a spine-chilling walk through historic homes featuring the spirits that still linger. Don’t expect to see Casper here. Tours available in spring and fall.
“JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO GO BACK IN A MUSEUM.” TAHOE TESSIE’S LAKE TAHOE MONSTER MUSEUM: OPEN JULY – SEPTEMBER AT 8608 NORTH LAKE BLVD. • KINGS BEACH, NEVADA
No. 8 Tahoe Tessie is like the Loch Ness, but much more laid back and minus the accent.
“SURE, IT WAS CONSIDERED MODERN ART. 10,000 YEARS AGO.” No. 9 We’re 82% sure the sacred messages etched in rock reads “Reno rocks!” Check out the area’s petroglyphs.
“SLOTS ANY LOOSER AND THEY’D NEED A CHASTITY BELT.” No. 10 For the third straight year in a row, Reno is rated for having the loosest slots in the nation by Casino Player Magazine. So what we’re saying is we’re easy.
“DIAMONDS ARE A GIRL’S BEST . . . DOH, THERE GOES ANOTHER ONE.” RING TOSS FROM THE VIRGINIA STREET BRIDGE, THE OLDEST FUNCTIONING ONE IN RENO, LOCATED ON VIRGINIA STREET BETWEEN COURT AND 1ST STREETS
No. 11 They say the fish in the Truckee River have the most bling in town. Betty Draper and Marilyn Monroe are both partially to thank. It’s safer than tossing the ex-husband into the river, but not quite as gratifying.
“HONEY, HAVE YOU SEEN MY FUZZY DICE?” No. 12 Hot August Nights is the largest classic car show in the West! Plus, your ability to eat a dozen jelly donuts in one sitting finally pays off.
“PAINT THE TOWN VERMILLION.” Forget what you think you know about Reno’s art culture and nightlife. Reno hosts an annual, month-long arts festival known as Artown No. 13, where the majority of the events are free! Along the beautiful Truckee River you’ll see the National Automobile Museum No. 14, one of the Top Ten in the nation according to Car Collector Magazine. Reno is home to Nevada’s only accredited art museum, the Nevada Museum of Art No. 15, host to Picasso, Warhol and Rafael – just to name a few – and the Biggest Little City has a vibrant music scene with the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra No. 16 and venues like the Knitting Factory No. 17, the 7,000-seat Reno Events Center No. 18 and outdoor amphitheaters at Bartley Ranch No. 19 or Wingfield Park on the river No. 20.

“FOLKS, HANG ON TO YOUR HATS AND GLASSES.” DOWNTOWN SEGWAY TOURS START INSIDE THE SILVER LEGACY RESORT CASINO ON THE WEST STREET LOWER LEVEL
No. 21 Walking is overrated. Hop aboard a 2-wheeled balancing device and buzz around town.
“SUNSHINE, COCKTAILS, GOLF. IT’S A GIMME.” RENO-TAHOE OPEN PGA TOUR, MONTREUX GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB 17150 BORDEAUX DR. • RENO, NEVADA 89511

“KEEP PYRAMID WEIRD.” PYRAMID LAKE IS 33 MILES NORTHEAST OF SPARKS, NEVADA VIA NEVADA ROUTE 445 (PYRAMID WAY)

“SUSHI IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS.” ATLANTIS CASINO RESORT SPA, 3800 S. VIRGINIA STREET RENO, NEVADA 89502
No. 25 Defy gravity in the amazing glass elevator in Reno’s only concierge tower. Or for even more great views, try the all-you-can-eat sushi in the Sky Terrace. No. 26 If you’re a connoisseur of the finer things in life, get a load of this – the Atlantis Spa features a treatment so unique, only eight spas in the entire country have bragging rights. No. 27 Enjoy the best of both worlds with a chocolate “burger” between two donuts served with mango fries at Bistro Napa.

“EXCUSE ME, BUT THERE’S A GOLD NUGGET IN MY SOUP.” VIRGINIA CITY IS ONLY 26 MILES FROM RENO. TRAVEL UP THE BEAUTIFUL, WINDING NV-341/GEIGER GRADE ROAD UNTIL YOU STUMBLE UPON THE OLD WILD WEST.
No. 28 Small mustaches, pinstriped suits and rip-roaring’ piano; it isn’t vaudeville circa 1850; it’s Virginia City, Nevada, where the Wild West lives on. Fueled by the discovery of silver, the historic mining town is where Mark Twain became famous as a writer. Visitors can pan for gold, tour an abandoned mine shaft, have a drink at the Bucket of Blood Saloon, ride the historic V&T Railroad or test the taste buds at the Rocky Mountain Oyster Festival. There ain’t no oysters in the desert. Just a little something to keep in mind as you draw that spoon closer to your mouth. www.renotahoe101.com
“SIGNS OF THE TIMES.” No. 29 No trip to Reno Tahoe is complete without a Kodak moment below one, or both, of our famous arches.
“IT’S LIKE AN AUTHENTIC HOLLYWOOD SET. ONLY, YA KNOW, REAL.” HISTORIC DOWNTOWN TRUCKEE IS 33 MILES WEST OF RENO ALONG I-80

No. 32 The view of Reno Tahoe is just better from 10,776 feet. Pack a picnic; this is a day trip you won’t forget.
“AS IF REGULAR BULLS WEREN’T EXTREME ENOUGH.” RENO RODEO AND THE XTREME BULL RIDING TOUR STOP, RENO-SPARKS LIVESTOCK EVENTS CENTER 1350 NORTH WELLS AVE • RENO, NEVADA 89512
No. 33 It’s ten days of genuine roping and bull riding every June in Reno. The rugged cowboys and Jack Daniels tent don’t hurt either.
“WHEN YOU REACH YOUR FINGERS, FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, STOP EATING.” BEST IN THE WEST NUGGET RIB COOK-OFF, VICTORIAN SQUARE 1100 NUGGET AVENUE • SPARKS, NEVADA 89431
No. 34 A really bad week to be a pig. A really great week to eat like one.
“LIKE NOTHING ELSE ON EARTH. OR ANY OTHER PLANET.” BURNING MAN HAPPENS ON THE BLACK ROCK DESERT, APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES NORTH OF RENO ALONG HWY 395 TO NV-447 NORTH.
No. 35 Think it’s just for hippies? Just ask the LA Times Travel section and the 50,000 people who attend.
“TOES IN SAND. CAMERA IN HAND.” No. 36 Cocktail service on the sand or a private retreat in a hidden cove (where some say clothing is optional). Lake Tahoe beaches – pack accordingly.

No. 37 Watch JR Johns and his hilarious hounds perform mind-boggling acrobatic tricks every day, FREE!

“TRUCKEE RIVER INSTRUCTIONS – WASH, RINSE, REPEAT.” A river runs through it, literally, and when the water is pumping, it produces up to Class III rapids. The 120-mile-long Truckee River is the sole outlet of beautiful Lake Tahoe. It cuts through the heart of downtown Reno and Sparks, offering limitless recreation for splashers of all ages and skill levels. No. 40 Spend a peaceful afternoon fishing, lazily drift on a raft, compete with world-class kayakers or indulge in the monthly wine walk along the Riverwalk District, rated as one of “America’s Coolest River Walks” in Travel and Leisure. The Riverwalk is 1.5 miles long featuring a 12-mile pedestrian path that connects two urban whitewater parks No. 41.

“A LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION, A LITTLE MORE ELVIS.” ELVIS’ GUN AND JEWEL COLLECTION, 200 NORTH MCCARRAN BLVD SPARKS, NEVADA AT SIERRA SID’S CASINO AND TRUCK STOP
No. 42 Because it makes sense for a truck stop to house Elvis’ guns and jewels. Yes, you read that right.
“A PERFECT STORM OF AWESOMENESS.” No. 43 Food off the grill, live music and great brews! Where else but the BBQ, Brews & Blues Festival could you find Unibroue and Hairy Eyeball Ale? Held annually in June.

“HEAR DADDY SCREAM ‘I WANT MY MOMMY.’” WILD ISLAND FAMILY ADVENTURE PARK, 250 WILD ISLAND COURT SPARKS, NEVADA 89434
No. 45 Fun for the whole family – really. Try a daredevil water slide or float the afternoon on an inner tube while mom and dad hang in the adult lounge.
“DO THESE PANTS COME IN TABLE FELT GREEN?” Did someone say shopping? We’ve got souvenir shops, retro chic bargains and name brands galore; from the Summit open-air center No. 46, hip and trendy Cal Ave No. 47 or Meadowood Mall No. 48, a half mile from the Reno-Sparks Convention Center. Or if you look great in camo, don’t miss the 125,000-square-foot Cabela’s west of Reno No. 49.
