Pahranagat Valley
Details
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Pahranagat Valley is located in the central part of Lincoln County, Nevada. The Rolling Stones of Pahranagat, a hoax article written by Dan De Quille of the Territorial Enterprise, made this valley world famous in 1862. The Crystal Springs area, used as a watering spot and campsite, was a principal stop-over on the Mormon Trail Alternate Route. In the late 1850s, the area was a haven for outlaws who pastured hundreds of head of stolen cattle and horses on its meadows. Silver ore was discovered in 1865 on Mount Irish, and Logan sprang briefly into existence. A mill to process the ore was built in Hiko, the ruins of which are still in existence.
