Sunset Rest Area, Rock Springs, and Cleater Arizona

Our travels to find new gold claims continued to take us south through Arizona. The first group of photos are of a really nice Rest Area we stopped at. After stopping here for a few hours we continued on south to Rock Springs which had two gold claims we wanted to check out. It turns out that Rock Springs is famous for its pie. The last group of photos are from our stay at the claim near Cleater, Arizona. It was up in the mountains on some pretty rough dirt roads.

THis is the Bullet Shute site. I called it that because of the cattle shute and we gathered a small bowl of empty shells all around on the ground.
