Logan, Nevada, is a ghost town located in the hills about 9.5miles west of Hiko and 2.5miles south of Mount Irish Peak. Logan had its brief existence as a mining camp when silver ore was discovered in 1865[1] in the Mount Irish Range just to the north in Silver Canyon on the east flank of Mount Irish.[2] [3] [4]
Variant names include Logan City, Logan Springs and Logans Springs.
The Logan Springs post office was in operation from July 1868 until August 1871.
A small spring of water called Logan Springs provided an essential resource for survival in such a harsh arid region.[5]
