SNevada - Las Vegas Wash

Folder: Nevada, southern
A perennial stream that drains the Las Vegas valley, connecting it with Lake Mead on the Colorado River system. It's unexpected in the southern Nevada desert, and a boon for wildlife--unfortunately, it now consists of treated sewage effluent!

A perennial stream that drains the Las Vegas valley, connecting it with Lake Mead on the Colorado River system. It's unexpected in the southern Nevada desert, and a boon for wildlife--unfortunately, it now consists of treated sewage effluent! Still, you can't tell just by _looking_ at it... Looking downstream; Lake Mead is beyond that brown hill in the middle distance.
