About Amargosa Valley
Living in Amargosa Valley
A desert town on US-95
Amargosa Valley, formerly called Lathrop Wells, had 1,408 residents at the 2020 census. It sits at about 2,664 feet in Mojave Desert terrain of flat sandy ground broken by rocky hills. The Tonopah and Tidewater Railroad ran through the valley from 1906 to 1940 to serve borax mining, and electricity did not arrive until 1963. Along the highway, the Big Bovine of the Desert, a 12-foot dairy cow statue, is a well-known roadside landmark. Pahrump is about 35 miles away.
Gateway to Death Valley
Death Valley National Park is about 24 miles away, and the town's Longstreet Hotel, Casino and RV Resort serves park visitors. SR 373 runs south from US-95 at Amargosa Valley to Death Valley Junction, California, where CA-190 enters the park. The park can also be entered from US-95 via SR 267 or from Beatty via SR 374. Just across the state line in Death Valley Junction, the historic Amargosa Opera House and Hotel sits in a historic district listed on the National Register since 1981.
Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge
Ash Meadows, established June 18, 1984, covers about 23,000 acres in the Amargosa Valley. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service describes it as the largest remaining oasis in the Mojave Desert, with the highest concentration of endemic species in the United States. Its 30-plus springs and seeps are fed by ice-age "fossil water," and it is home to the Devils Hole pupfish. Ash Meadows was designated a Ramsar wetland of international importance in 1986.
