See Clark Memorial, Valley of Fire State Park, Nevada
John Clark was a Civil War veteran who was traveling from Bakersfield, California, to Salt Lake City, Utah, when he stopped in the Valley of Fire. Here, he tied his horse to the back of his wagon and wandered around (presumably in search of water). He eventually crawled under his wagon and died, most likely of thirst. His body was found several days later on June 30, 1915.
Access: The Clark Memorial is located on the south side of State Road 169 in the Valley of Fire State Park. The State Park is about 6 miles from Lake Mead and 55 miles northeast of Las Vegas via Interstate 15 and exit 75.
TIPS:
$10 to enter the state park
