Old Water Storage Pumping House and down hill sloped trench for water pipelines to the Ready-mix Concrete Plant in Sloan. Removed whin on site well was put in Sloan. Was up and running when Las Vegas was under construction 1940s - 1960s.

Nope, impossible... That stretch of railroad was completed in 1906 and runs over the "trench"... Also the rock walls inside the hole are fossilized, they've been exposed forever. This is a prehistoric meteor strike that was recently excavated. Another thing is that historical aerial imagery shows this hole and tail but no concrete plant in 1965.

@david-evans22 you literally have other people in the comments who live near Sloan telling you what it was. And you're convinced a meteor did this?😂 meteors don't roll on the ground... and zig left and right... they smash and splatter... There wasn't a well near Sloane, there was a well up near the mine, they ran a big pipe down to the town, they built a well in town, they took the pipe away....

Not a crash site, that isn't how impact ejecta lays out, shallow impacts of this angle would just reflect off hard surfaces. The piles on the sides indicate it was dug out. The line is very straight at the start, but it does curve in smooth long curves as if made for a railway line which ends at ' Southern Nevada Paving '. edit: Followed a line I found going east from that point, it is no longer followable once it hits ' W Cactus Ave ' almost 4miles away. Looks very much like a dig out for an old small railway. On google Earth older images the line continues to an intersection of ' Blue Diamond Hwy ' and ' Hualapaui Way '

@albopicklemcnicol1682 12 күн бұрын

Yo, how the actual meteor, if it was one, has skimmed the ground and as the guys said, turned, curved and moved across the landscape.. it kinda doesn’t make any sense. Sure a water line would make sense, if the age of erosion wasn’t apart and clearly visible, how it is here. It’s so odd, I’ve got no clue, other than the examples given.. maybe some geological movement or instability, release of pressure; now the water flow idea could just be the one on the nose. Just it’s all kinda abrupt, oddly placed and old; like is it older than 20 years, yeah; 40, yeah. 60? Hmmm, it’s a head scratcher because things kinda stick out, and other things don’t, such as the entire structure, suddenly stopping, also the ejecta is spread about the place like it could’ve been put there or shifted n lifted rather quickly, more instantaneously.. If the guy could source down local government plans or company’s that existed in that area, to background check, that would be interesting and helpful. It would be even more beneficial, if there’s some local news paper, that may talk about some sorta action that was happening or take out, by that way. I do believe that with this is.. it’ll be terrestrial but, could be E.T.

Wouldn’t be a meteor, it wouldn’t dig out that path and put a pile on one side, it would hit and be short dig, if skimming the top it wouldn’t dig it would make a dent and fly out further away from the trajectory speed.

This was possibly man-made, meteors do not make long bending tails in the ground. Even if it was a meteor then you would have found the hole having molten qualities as it would have been a few thousand degrees as it came into the atmosphere and crashed there. You would also be able to find some glass formed by the extreme temperatures from the meteor. After using Google Earth to look through historical imagery, that hole most likely was made around the time of the construction of that building possibly from the late 70s to mid 80s or possibly even earlier as the earliest image is June 1977 in this area. Judging by the number of mining claims in the surrounding areas, that area would have had a lot of traffic.
