This modest Mojave Desert city on the western bank of the Colorado River, Needles sits at the California border with Arizona and Nevada, with mountain views in the surrounding landscape. Accessible from Interstate 40 and U.S. Route 95, it serves as a stopping point in this remote stretch of Southern California where the river meets the desert.
