About Bullhead City
Bullhead City is across the Colorado River fromLaughlin, Nevada, known for its many casinos. Spirit Mountain in the distance was known as the origin of life on earth for the Mojave people who once occupied the area. In 1864 a landing for steamboats from Yuma was established here called Hardyville as it was the furthest north that the river was continuously navigable. But over time other landings as well as railroad crossings stole commerce away until Hardyville basically vanished. By the 1970s, vitality returned with the building of Davis Dam and Lake Mohave. Between Bullhead City and Laughlin on the Nevada side of the river, the area boomed, especially with snowbirds escaping from their wintry domiciles elsewhere.
