want to consider doing that, maybe have you own lodgings but it isn't too terribly far from Mesquite, might be more tolerant there. I know rural UT is pretty rough and tumble in spots, and also religious sensitivity is stronger than in SLC, probably the most liberal area in UT. Be careful. In UT there used to be some pretty strict alcohol laws, and watered down beer. You will be best advised to look into what hauling your own booze might require as there could be laws that prohibit transport. I make a point of not venturing that far south, Idaho is challenging enough and I live north of there! But I used to travel all over so I was aware of lots of laws some time ago... maybe check the tourism site on the state's official page.
