Meadow Valley Wash, a tributary of the Colorado River, flows
130 miles from its sources in the Wilson Creek Range north of
Ursine, Nevada to its junction with the Muddy River near
Glendale, Nevada. On its way it flows through or near five
communities, six valleys with active agriculture, four Nevada
state parks, and shares a desert canyon with an international
shipping route, the Union Pacific Railroad line from Salt Lake
City to Los Angeles.
