Magma chambers of the Newberry Mountians (NV not CA, I wonder if same guy). I used to measure water well levels in Laughlin when there was one trailer court and just the Riverside Casino. Now even the Power Plant that brought coal slurry from the Navajos is gone. Still not many people houses in Laughlin. Heartland of the Chemeuvi and Mojave Indians and Fort Mojave to keep them in line. I came this far from home to take care of business where I work at nothing all day. A repost with a little more effort.
