Upper Pahranagat Lake, Lincoln County

The more fertile part of Pahranagat Valley is a narrow ribbon of green) like an oasis in the vast Nevada desert. The southern half of the valley including two lakes, Upper Pahranagat Lake and Lower Pahranagat Lake, is home to the Pahranagat Valley National Wildlife Refuge. In the late 1850s, the area was a haven for outlaws who pastured hundreds of head of stolen cattle and horses on its meadows.
