The Beaver Dam Wash is a seasonal stream near the southwestern Utah-Nevada border in the United States.
At its southern end in northern Arizona, near the point where it empties into the Virgin River, the stream flows throughout the year.
[2] The wash occupies a transition zone among the Colorado Plateau, the Great Basin, and the Mojave Desert ecosystems.
[3] The wash begins in the Clover Mountains in Lincoln County, Nevada and flows south across very sparsely populated desert terrain.
Animal life in the area consists of a variety of lizards, mammals, birds, insects, and other creatures found in the Mojave Desert.
