Lt. Beale crossed here looking for water while looking out over what is now Kingman, AZ. Running out of water he stopped and sent "The Camels" to search. Mr. Bishop, founder of Bishop, CA, had told Beale that springs were in the area. This location is the only land on his route that is owned by the Valle Vista Property Owners Association.
