Just a day trip away from Tucson & 4 miles shy of the border of Mexico is a rare opportunity to look back at over a century of Arizona's mining history. From a once-thriving community of 1,200 people to a modern-day ghost town. Ruby has access to over 350 acres of trails, two lakes, and incredible biodiversity.

Arizona

N Pearce Rd, Elfrida, AZ 85610

31°46'13.2"N 109°48'31.9"W

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.

Bradshaw City, AZ 86343

34°11'48.1"N 112°21'19.0"W

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.
