Hyadic spaces are the continuous images of a hyperspace of a compact space. We prove that every non-isolated point in a hyadic space is the endpoint of some infinite cardinal subspace. We isolate a more general order-theoretic property of hyerspaces of compact spaces which is also enjoyed by compact semilattices from which the theorem follows.
