Nevada State Route 168 - Route Description

Route Description

The western terminus of SR 168 is in northern Clark County, near the proposed master planned community of Coyote Springs. The route begins at the junction with US 93 east of the Sheep Range on the eastern border of the Desert National Wildlife Refuge. The route continues eastward about 21 miles (34 km), passing north of the Arrow Canyon Wilderness Area. From there, the route enters the town of Moapa in the Moapa River Indian Reservation. After another 2 miles (3.2 km), the highway enters Glendale. Just shy of accessing Interstate 15 at the Glendale interchange (exit 90), SR 168 turns north onto Lewis Ranch Road through the town to end at exit 91 on I-15.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:

    “But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
    —Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)

    “I was here first introduced to Joe.... He was a good-looking Indian, twenty-four years old, apparently of unmixed blood, short and stout, with a broad face and reddish complexion, and eyes, methinks, narrower and more turned up at the outer corners than ours, answering to the description of his race. Besides his underclothing, he wore a red flannel shirt, woolen pants, and a black Kossuth hat, the ordinary dress of the lumberman, and, to a considerable extent, of the Penobscot Indian.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
