Tombstone | Arizona | Historic City | Old Wild West Town | USA
Tombstone is a historic city in Cochise County, Arizona, United States, founded in 1879 by prospector Ed Schieffelin in what was then Pima County, Arizona Territory. It became one of the last boomtowns in the American frontier. The town grew significantly into the mid-1880s as the local mines produced $40 to $85 million in silver bullion, the largest productive silver district in Arizona. Its population grew from 100 to around 14,000 in less than seven years. It is best known as the site of the famous fight at the O.K. Corral and presently draws most of its revenue from tourism.

Ghost Town History
Ghost Town Museum was created in 1954 to preserve a piece of Colorado's Wild West heritage.
In 1858 the cry Pikes Peak or Bust opened up the heartland of the Colorado territory to the gold prospector. Gold mining became a significant factor that led to the statehood of Colorado. The miners and the people who provided services to them quickly populated the western frontier of the United States. They needed transportation, and before long the twin steel ribbons of the railroads were pushing into the mountains to transport ore for processing.
Towns sprang up overnight and by the 1860's and 1870's people had blanketed the west. It was a rough and tumble time. Small encampments became small towns. Small cities along the rocky mountain Front Range provided a central location for supplies and services. The search for gold drove prospectors to every mountain valley, and every mountain peak. If gold or silver were not located, or if the mines played out, the towns were often abandoned to become ghost towns.
Little by little the raw spirit of the frontier died down. By the time gold was discovered in Cripple Creek in 1891, the frontier was almost gone. Today almost nothing remains of those exciting days of the old west. A scattered pile of old lumber, a tumbled pile of rocks marking an old mine, an occasional wagon wheel or a piece of equipment. The rip roaring camps of 100 years ago have become ghost towns now only a memory of a bygone era.
Oatman Arizona - US Route 66 - Wild Burros - Old West - ????
Here is a short(er) version of our ride through the twists, turns, uphills and downhills on US Route 66 into Oatman Arizona. Video was taken with our dash-cam. We cut up the video and shortened if from the almost 60 minute white knuckle drive down to a smooth relaxing 15 minutes.
Oatman is known for it's wild burros that roam the streets and feast on whatever they manage to get from the tourists. Watch your step in town and look both ways before crossing the street as these burros own the town.

Tombstone is a historic city Arizona. It was one of the last wide-open frontier boomtowns in the American Old West. The town prospered from about 1877 to 1890, during which time the town's mines produced $40 to $85 million in silver bullion, the largest productive silver district in Arizona. Its population grew from 100 to around 14,000 in less than seven years. It is best known as the site of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.

Historic US 66, CR 66 East - The Mother Road, Goffs Rd - Essex to Needles (State Line)

US Highway 66 is the road that needs no introduction. Originally running from Chicago, Illinois to Los Angeles, CA, the road traveled more then two thousand miles all the way. The road rose to fame with the Dust Bowl of the 1930's because of residents seeking a better life in Los Angeles. In The Grapes of Wrath, the road was given the nickname of 'The Mother Road', and was made into a musical tune by the Nat Cole Trio's hit '(Get Your Kicks On) Route 66.
The road traveled eight states, and out of 2400 miles, California had the third longest stretch of highway, spanning 315 approximate miles, versus New Mexico's 380 miles and Arizona's 401 miles. US 66 originally ended in Downtown Los Angeles at the corner of Broadway and 7th St, but was later extended to Santa Monica when US 66 was rebranded as a 'road to paradise'.
In 1964, US Route 66 was legally decommissioned in the State of California, although it was still signed along Route 248 (later SR 248), Route 66 (modern SR 66), Route 15 (modern I-215), and Route 40. This was due to the 1964 renumbering in California which abolished the Legislative Route Number (LRN) System in favor of using the Signed Route number. California also tried to abolished as many multiplexes (multiple Signed Routes on one road) as possible. US 66 was first truncated to Pasadena, later La Verne, and finally Barstow until I-40 was completed in the 1970's, which marked the end of US 66 in California.
Now, with modern efforts of the getting the road back on the map, San Bernardino County has made it's own effort to resign the route in it's rural desert. Unlike portions in the Inland Empire which are maintained by their respective cities, the county has been responsible for maintenance of this road since Caltrans relinquished it. San Bernardino County also opted to sign CR 66 in Barstow and Needles, however I am unsure if the county or the city maintains these portions. Irregardless, CR 66 runs from just north of Victorville to Needles, via the National Trails Highway and The Needles Freeway (I-40).
Today we set our sights on the section of US 66 from Essex to Needles. In Essex, out route splits into two: the earlier 1926 alignment turning north along Goffs Rd to bend back east to meet modern US 95, then turning south to join I-40, and our later alignment which make a straight beeline of about 5 miles to meet I-40 further west. Due to an unfortunate bridge washout, we are only able to take the former 1926 alignment. It is unknown when, if ever, this section of US 66 will ever reopen.
After about 25 miles, we join US 95. An original 1926 route, this highway was later extended to Blythe, CA in 1940. As such, US 95 and US 66 were never signed together along this route until the modern US 95/I-40 junction west of Needles. At that point, they were cosigned from the modern junction to the historic divesture at Broadway and Five Mile Rd south of Needles. From there, US 66 traffic is forced onto I-40 due to the pavement being removed, however you can exit onto Park Moabi Rd and get one last kick on Route 66 in California before heading into Arizona. The original bridge, show at the end in white, has been repurposed as a utility bridge. The later bridge was near that same spot at 8:35 in the video. Instead of turning right, the bridge approach would have been right there and would have brought traffic almost onto modern I-40.

OATMAN ARIZONA ~ OLD MINING GHOST TOWN [HD]
April 6, 2012. I spent an afternoon in Oatman Arizona on historic route 66 (Oatman Hwy) about 28 miles from Kingman AZ. This town was founded a gold mining community in the very early 1900s. Just recently in 2008, the Gold Road Mine in the area was reopened for business, as gold prices are now quite high, making it profitable once again. It seems the town itself is thriving on tourism alone, most of whole Oatman Arizona downtown area is souvenir shops, antique shoppes, restaurants, etc.
If you're through this way, off I-40 at Kingman AZ, you might want to take this trip into Oatman AZ. There's a gunfight (actors) in the street a couple times a day, like 12 noon and 2:15pm, something like that. There's a lot of wild donkeys (borros) that roam about town begging for food.
There's one place I went into there in Oatman Arizona that I felt for sure is haunted (among other obvious haunted historic places nearby), a very strong presence there. I didn't include it among the video clips here.
Goldfield Ghost Town - Phoenix Arizona
Visit Goldfield Ghost Town today! Walk down Main Street, explore the many shops and historic buildings. Tour the historic Mammoth Gold Mine and visit the Goldfield Museum. Pan for gold then take a ride on Arizona’s only narrow gauge train. You’ll also get to witness an old west gun fight performed by the famous Goldfield Gunfighters! Spend a fun filled day, rich in wild west history!
Back in the 1890′s Goldfield boasted 3 saloons, a boarding house, general store, blacksmith shop, brewery, meat market and a school house. Just when it looked like the town would outgrow Mesa, the vein faulted, the grade of ore dropped and the town died a slow painful death.
After several unsuccessful attempts to reopen the mines, the town did come to life again from 1910 on and off until 1926. After more than 115 years, travelers from all over the world still visit this gold mining town located on the historic Apache Trail and enjoy the excitement and grandeur of Arizona’s wild west!
Rock hounding (crystals) at Highway 97 and Westside road.
Took the kids out rock hounding today, looking for zeolites, quartz crystals, Amethyst, and found some citrine too. The new Westside road interchange off highway 97 in West Kelowna has blasted out some of Mount Boucherie's basalt revealing many fresh vugs full of all sorts of Silicates. Some quite exciting.
