Nestled in an arid landscape, Courtland, born from early 1900s mining fervor, whispers tales of a once-thriving community. A fading jail, a collapsing store, and silent foundations stand as echoes of its past. The hills, marked by mines, caution visitors of the hidden hazards within the remnants of Courtland's mining legacy.

We camped in Bradshaw City of April 2021. We explored through the small canyons and down some side roads. We found many rock piles that are the remains of structures. Also found a wood arch way, that appeared to be part of mining operations. We enjoy the forest and sites and look forward to returning for some more exploration.
