I lived in Las Vegas for 1 year. One of my favorite things to do was hiking and running in the desert. This area was a couple miles from my house. It is a reservoir, but doesn't hold water most of the time, it is built to defend against flash floods.
Here is a friendly coyote that I saw while I was out playing one day.
...and here is a desert tortoise.
