Foxysandchick Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 It is explained here.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amargosa_River "The Amargosa River is an intermittent stream, 185 miles (298 km) long, in southern Nevada and eastern California in the United States. It drains a high desert region northwest of Las Vegas into Death Valley, where it disappears into the ground. Except for a small portion of its route in the Amargosa Canyon in California and a small portion at Beatty, Nevada, the river flows only after a rare rainstorm washes the region. Except during flash floods that occur after cloudbursts, most of the course of the Amargosa River is dry on the surface.[5] The flow is generally underground except for stretches near Beatty and near Tecopa, California, in the Amargosa Canyon." :swim: Quote
