LAKE MEAD AIRSTREAM CAMPING // What is a National Recreation Area?

Welcome to Lake Mead National Park - no-no - Lake Mead National Recreation Area. 🤷‍♀️

If you're anything like us, when you hear "National Recreation Area" and see a National Park sign next to each other, you're probably wondering - what the heck is the difference between the two?

That's what you'll find in this video as we explore Lake Mead National Recreation Area just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. #LakeMeadNationalRecreationArea
