1968 Map of Tybo

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The settlement of Tybo lies at the heart of the Hot Creek Range, documented here as it appeared in the late 1960s. This survey, conducted in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, highlights a landscape defined by its mining heritage and rugged geological formations. Mining activity is evident throughout the southern reaches, with the A & B Mine, M & M Mine, and Break Mine situated near several prospects and Water Tanks. The industrial legacy of the area is further marked by multiple clusters of Charcoal Kilns found in the northern canyons, essential for early smelting operations. High peaks such as Amethyst Peak and Peach Peak overlook a complex network of drainages including Cottonwood Canyon and Fairbanks Canyon. Reliable water sources like Mule Shoe Spring and Dean Spring provided necessary support for the remote operations in this arid Nevada environment.
