The Hunter S Thompson Dome is a unique art installation located in the Las Vegas Wash watershed of Nevada. The dome was built in 1996 as a tribute to the journalist and author, Hunter S Thompson, who lived in the area for several years. The dome features an interior mural painted by artist Ralph Steadman, who worked closely with Thompson throughout his career. The mural depicts Thompson's famous quote, "Buy the ticket, take the ride", and features colorful, psychedelic imagery that reflects Thompson's unconventional style.
Visiting the Hunter S Thompson Dome is a must for anyone interested in art, literature, and counterculture. The dome is a unique example of public art that reflects the spirit of the American West, and its location in the Las Vegas Wash watershed provides a stunning backdrop for the mural. Visitors can explore the dome and take in the vibrant colors and intricate details of Steadman's mural, which captures the essence of Thompson's writing in a visual form. In addition to the mural, visitors can also enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding area, which includes scenic hiking trails and breathtaking views of the desert landscape.
