Alternative Dating Mead Valley Ca

The seemingly barren, grey-brown hills that line the northwest shore of Lake Mead conceal a variety of hidden, scenic landscapes, principally many outcrops of deep red Aztec sandstone, visible most spectacularly at Valley of Fire State Park. But they also contain old mines, interesting geology, ancient petroglyphs, Mojave desert flora and narrow slot canyons, of which the most easily reached is formed by Lovell Wash, a tributary of Callville Wash, as it cuts into a ridge in the Gale Hills

at the south edge of the Muddy Mountains.
The rocks here are composed of numerous thin limestone and mudstone layers angled around 45 degrees, and although short (0.3 miles), the canyon is pretty, and the dry wash winds through a photogenic series of chutes, potholes and curving passageways, edged by the jagged strata. The 2.5 mile hike to the slot also passes the remains of Anniversary Mine, once a site of borax excavations, now a renowned location for collecting gemstones; the slot is also known as the Anniversary Narrows

Topographic Map of Lovell Wash

Location

Lovell Wash is accessed by Northshore Road (NV 167) that crosses the north side of Lake Mead National Recreation Area, between Las Vegas and Overton Beach; a side road branches off to the north next to the Callville Wash crossing (at milepost 16), runs along the side of a grassy bank then descends into the wash. Regular cars can be parked at roadside just before the descent, though 4WD vehicles are able to continue most of the way to the mouth of the narrows (2 miles) since the hike to the canyon is along an old mining track, linking Callville Wash Road with Lowell Wash, meeting the latter 0.6 miles downstream of the slot section.
However, access has become more complicated since early 2015; part of Lovell Wash just below the narrows crosses a private inholding, site of active mining operations, and the usual approach route is blocked with a fence and No Trespassing notice. The private area runs east and west across the foot of the Gale Hills, extending a little way up the steep slopes, so reaching the canyon while remaining entirely on the surrounding BLM land is very difficult, though an alternative approach up and down two shallow ravines half a mile east is thought to be acceptable. Access was still restricted in early 2020.

Route Description

The dirt road from Hwy 167 forks just after crossing the wide, stony streambed of Callville Wash; left (road 94a) is the old mining track to Lovell Wash while right (road 94) leads towards Bowl of Fire, another dramatic outcrop of Aztec sandstone. The left fork follows a minor drainage for a while, traverses a hillside (and exits the NRA), crosses the drainage again then continues climbing towards the edge of the mountains which rise up to the west. The remains of Anniversary Mine soon come into view - tailings piles, shafts and crumbling concrete structures, all dating from the 1920s when the mine was a major source of colemanite, a borate mineral. The place is now a good site for hunting semi-precious stones such as agate and travertine.

Notes:

1. California School Ratings (CSR) computes percentiles in this way:
   1. For a given grade level, all Math scores are put into an ordered list and a percentile is calculated for each score, based its position in the list.
   2. For a given grade level, all English scores are put into an ordered list and a percentile is calculated for each score, based its position in the list.
   3. Math and English percentiles from (a & b above) are weighted, based on the number of students who completed each type of test, to create a combined Math+English weighted percentile for each school.
   4. The combined Math+English weighted percentiles are put into an ordered list for the particular type of school (elementary/middle/high school/K-12) and a percentile-within-the-school-type is calculated.
   5. How percentiles work: the school percentile is a number between 0 and 100 that reflects the percentage of schools of the same type (elementary/middle/high school/K-12) in California that have an equal or lower combined Math+English weighted percentile (from 1-c above). For example, a school in the 70th percentile would have a combined weighted percentile that was equal to or better than 70% of the other schools of the same type.
2. The CSR Rank is determined by a school's percentile in comparison to other schools of the same type in California (from 1-d above). (1 is the worst, 10 is the best). Schools in the 90th percentile and above have rank 10, 80%-89.999% rank 9 and so on. A similar number of schools occupy each rank. * This rank is derived from data in the 2016 California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP).
