There's a place in Boulder City Nevada where you can get up close and personal with wild bighorn sheep. Watch them graze and see their antics. And see another place where the sheep came to me.

Rockhopper here. Want to get up close and personal with wild bighorn sheep without having to go
up there? I've got just the place for you.
Bighorn Park, Boulder City, Nevada. It lives up to its name with the bighorn sheep right here.
Be advised, these guys are actually wild, but they're kind of tame. They come down here into
the park and graze during the daytime, and I was told they go back up into the mountains at night,
and it used to be that they would come down here only at certain months of the year, but now,
due to the drought, which has lasted 20 going on 21 years now, they pretty much just hang out here
every day throughout the year. If you happen to be in Boulder City, grab a seat and enjoy the show.
You might have competition for the bench. This is Hemingway Park, but it's often referred to by
locals and Google Maps as Bighorn Park. Enjoy the pretty backdrop of Lake Mead.
Looks like trouble. Are these guys gonna clash and butt heads? I guess not.
Looks like a bighorn traffic jam. The sheep have the right-of-way here.
After a hard day of grazing, it's time for a siesta. Look at that. I've got a whole string
of bighorn sheep literally walking right in front of my car, just a few feet away from the front
bumper. That's cool. Or unbeknownst to me, I can just wait here and the sheep come to me.
I hope you enjoyed this little adventure to Boulder City, Nevada's Bighorn Park. Don't
forget to subscribe and give me a thumbs up like on the video and share it with everyone you know.
Till next time, this is the Rock Hopper. I'll see ya.
