Cowpens National Battlefield
Located east of Chesnee, South Carolina, Cowpens National Battlefield is a site that commemorates a major victory of the American Revolutionary War. On January 17, 1781, Brigadier General Daniel Morgan and his ragtag group of American irregulars dealt a humiliating defeat to British Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton and his highly disciplined force of Redcoats. The battle was considered decisive in the war effort and was one of Morgan's most well-known triumphs. Today, the site of the battlefield is preserved as a national monument where visitors can learn about the history of the battle and see the historical marker that denotes the location of Morgan's famous triumph.

Yucca House
Yucca House National Monument is located at the foot of Sleeping Ute Mountain, in Montezuma County, Colorado between the towns of Towaoc and Cortez, Colorado. Yucca House is a large, unexcavated Ancestral Puebloan archaeological site. The site is one of many Ancestral Pueblo village sites located in the Montezuma Valley occupied between AD 1100 and 1300 by 13,000 people. The site was first identified by cowboys in the late 1800s who reported finding "potsherds, human bones, and other artifacts". In the early 1900s, more extensive excavations were conducted by J.W. Fewkes and Sylvanus Morley of the Smithsonian Institution.

Lake Mead
Lake Mead is America's First National Recreation Area, and one of the most spectacular reservoirs in the country. Some 24 miles east of Las Vegas it is the largest reservoir in the US in terms of water capacity. It was formed by the Hoover Dam on the Colorado River, and stretches across Nevada and Arizona. At maximum capacity, Lake Mead is 112 miles long, 532 feet at its greatest depth, has a surface elevation of 1,229 feet above sea level, has a surface area of 247 square miles and contains 28.23 million acre-feet of water. Jagged mountain ranges surround the lake, offering a scenic backdrop, especially at sunset. Because of drought and increased water demand, the lake has remained below capacity since 1983. In 2022 Lake Mead held 26.63% of full capacity. As a result of the decreasing water level, marinas and boat launch ramps have either had to be relocated to another area of the lake or have closed down permanently. Lake Mead provides water to the states of Arizona, California, and Nevada as well as some of Mexico, providing sustenance to nearly 20 million people and large areas of farmland.
