Erosion exhibit at Las Vegas Springs PreserveExplore the phenomena of erosion in the Las Vegas Valley. In this exhibit, water is released over a period of time into a bed of granular material and the resulting erosion features are matched to photos of real geologic features.

The result of the erosion creates landforms similar to those seen in the Mojave desert.
