Vulture City - The Forgotten Arizona Ghost Town
When you think of Old Western "Ghost Towns" in Arizona, you think of Jerome, or Oatman. Maybe even Tombstone (although that town was too tough to die), but rarely has anyone from out of state heard of Vulture City, the epic forgotten mine and ghost town buildings perched outside of Wickenburg in a part of the state that gets fewer travelers than Route 66, the Grand Canyon, or the Saguaro national park, but has all the epic scenery and old western charm you could want! From the high Peeple's valley to Granite Mountain and Congress and even all the way to Wickenburg and beyond, we explore an epic alternative to the usual Arizona road trip!
