2018 Map of Tybo

About this map

The high-desert settlement of Tybo sits along the northern edge of this Nye County map, framed by the complex topography of the Hot Creek Range. The landscape is a network of named drainages and peaks that speak to the area's mining history, most notably Air Shaft Ridge and Amethyst Peak. High-altitude springs like Mule Shoe Spring and Cave Spring provided critical water sources in an otherwise arid environment of canyons and gulches. To the south, the terrain opens into broader features like Charcoal Basin and Wide Valley, separated by the prominent Peach Peak and Rawhide Mtn. This survey captures the relationship between these natural landmarks and the industrial heritage suggested by names like Gilmore Gulch and Crystal Canyon, providing a clear record of the district's geography in the early 21st century.
