Did you have to buy tickets to see the Fly Geyser and where did you buy them and how much was the cost? I have read it is on Private land, is it quite common for people who visit Gerlach to want to visit there? All the websites I have read and searched say its hard to get to go and visit. I live in New Zealand and it would be wonderful to go and see it. Any information you have would be gratefully received.

I just made my first visit there, and it was lovely! To answer your questions, yes, you have to buy tickets, which you can do on the website for the Friends of Black Rock High Rock. The cost is $40 per person, which is a donation to the organization, but you can also ask for a refund (I suspect that’s a rare request). Admission is only via organized tour or event, and I would recommend making reservations as early as possible. It’s not at all hard to get to the site. It’s about a two-hour drive from Reno to Gerlach. From there, you caravan to Fly Ranch, which takes about twenty minutes. Once you are there, it’s about a mile or so walk to the geyser, with several stops along the way for talks from the guides. At the end you have at least twenty minutes around the geyser to take photos. It’s an easy and beautiful walk.
