The Searchlight Triple Divide is a water divide point to the east of Searchlight, Nevada. The triple point is where three watersheds converge. The three watersheds are: 1-Eldorado Valley Watershed, (to northwest); 2-Havasu-Mohave Lakes, (east); and 3-Piute Wash Watershed, (south). To the south and east of Eldorado Valley are "two-watershed-divides". South is the Piute Wash Watershed-(with Edlorado Watershed), and east is the border with the Colorado River in the water divide of the Eldorado Mountains, the Havasu-Mohave Lakes Mohave Watershed-(with Eldorado Watershed). Triple Points A triple point, (the SW Triple Point), lies 12 mi to the west-northwest of Searchlight, (in the region at SW Eldorado Valley-highest watershed origins, the intersection regon between the and the south of the McCullough Range). It is located in the SW of the Eldorado Valley Watershed, and is the triple point intersection of the Eldorado watershed with the Ivanpah-Pahrump, and Piute Wash watersheds. For the Great Basin Divide, south of the SW Triple Point and in the New York Mountains, the water divide again returns two a twp-water divide section between, Ivanpah-Pahrump Watershed and the Piute Wash Watershed.
