Image: The Stratosphere Tower, Las Vegas, Nevada

Description: The landmark Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas is the tallest free-standing observation tower in the U.S. at 1149 feet (350 meters) in height. Only the upper half is seen in this picture. In addition to observation decks that provide a great view of Las Vegas and vicinity in all directions, the top ot the tower is home to a restaurant and three open-air thrill-rides, two of which I have sampled and can personally testify that they really get the adrenaline flowing and make your hair rise.
