Branches and Adobe

Visitors can see a replica of a pit dwelling built of branches and adobe as well as replicas of pueblos. Here we see the opening in the roof of the pueblo.

Irrigation Ditch

The Lost City Museum is located in Moapa Valley. Farming in the valley is made possible by the miles of irrigation ditches. Water is stored in a reservoir in the upper valley and reaches the farms via the irrigation ditches. Many of these ditches are open as seen in this photo of the ditch that runs through the museum grounds.
