1967 Map of Blue Jay Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Tybo sits at the edge of the Hot Creek Valley, reflecting the mining activity that once defined this portion of Nye County. The landscape is marked by deep cuts such as Old Dominion Canyon, Keystone Canyon, and Empire Canyon, which drop from the western heights toward the valley floor. Evidence of mineral extraction is noted south of the settlement, where Tailings are recorded near Tybo Creek. Water sources were critical in this arid environment, represented by widely dispersed features like Blue Jay Spring, the Keystone Well, and Butte Spring. The Atomic Energy Commission helped map this area during the late 1960s, documenting a remote network of drainage washes like Moores Station Wash and the winding course of Hot Creek.
