Fly Ranch sits roughly 20 miles north of Gerlach, on the edge of Black Rock Desert in northwest Nevada. In 1916, workers digging a well at the site hit a geothermal spring, which flooded the area. As pressure and heat built up, the ground cracked during the 1960s and mineral-rich water began to spray. The mineral deposits began building a colorful rock tower that now climbs, in rainbow-hued glory, above the arid landscape. Fly Ranch is private property, so you can't see the geyser up close. But careful drivers on State Route 34 might catch a glimpse on a clear day.
