Boulder City

 is a town in the Mojave Wasteland. It is "Home of the Eagles".

History
The town was until recently a functional one. During the battle for the Hoover Dam in 2277, in a last ditch attempt to defeat the Legion, NCR Rangers booby trapped the town and led Legion troops into the trap. Although this won the battle, the city was mainly demolished as a result. After the battle, a monument to the fallen soldiers of the NCR during the battle was placed in the remains of the town.

Layout
On entrance, there is an NCR memorial to soldiers who died at the Battle for Hoover Dam, being looked at by Private Kowalski, if the player shoots the memorial Kowalski will draw his gun and if shot a second time he will attack. There isn't much in the town besides a saloon, which is run by Ike, and the battling going on between the NCR and the Great Khans. To the northeast of Boulder City is the old train station. Loot in and around the train station consists of: An Average locked terminal and a Hard locked floor safe inside the train station office and a Duffel Bag at the top of the ramp with a yellow cart. The bag contains roughly 100 caps and some other miscellaneous items (ranging from ammo to scrap metal, this is a random loot.)
