BLM-managed Boyd Station sits along the historic Pony Express Trail in Ibapah, Utah, a route flanked by mineral collecting sites, abandoned mines, and old cabins worth exploring. Roads here are well-maintained. North of the station, BLM - Dugway Geode Beds - Dispersed Site gives access to softball-sized geodes, while Topaz Mountain to the southeast draws collectors hunting topaz, aquamarine, and obsidian. The campground allows fires, pets, and alcohol, with drive-in access. A high-clearance 4WD vehicle is not required but expands available routes considerably.
Description
Boyd Station survives as one of the best preserved Express Stations in Utah. This preservation is probably due to the fact that Bid Boyd, station master, continued to occupy the site into the current century
