Goldfield Ghostown - Gateway to the Apache Trail

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.  It is now a tourist attraction with shops and restaurants and a train that circles the Town.  There are gunfights on the weekends.


Had a really good burger at the Saloon. 

The Train and horseback riding was available. 

The residents are very friendly 


Till Later,

Meanwhile, we keep on Trek'n
