Castle Hot Springs
The Oasis
Castle Hot Springs is our basic tour and is sometimes
included as part of some of our extended tours. This veritable Oasis in
the desert has a long history, according Arizona Highways Magazine, dating back to
some of the earlier Indian Tribes in Arizona. It also includes the 'rich
and famous' with names like the Rockefeller's and Vanderbilt's as well as movie
stars like Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe and John Wayne amongst others. JFK
and Jackie also vacationed there. Even the Rockefeller's and Vanderbilt's had
to reach it by Stage Coach in the late 1800's and early 1900's due to its remote
location in the heart of the Castle Creek Wilderness area.
Copperopolis
Grave - Annie Mae
White - 1881
The Copperopolis tour
begins the same as our Castle Hot Springs tour then takes the right fork in the
road at the 'Y' where the road divides to go to Morristown or up to the Ghost
Towns of Briggs/Kirby and Copperopolis. These towns had their beginnings
in the late 1870's when nearly 500 people lived in Copperopolis. This tour
is one of the more rugged and remote tours that we offer in this area. It follows the old
Stage Coach and Teamster's wagon routes to these Ghost Towns and takes us deeper in the
Castle Creek Wilderness.
