Route 66 Oatman Highway
$22.00
The stretch of old Route 66 that leaves Kingman, climbs Sitgreaves Pass through the Black Mountains, and drops into Oatman on the other side. The road is narrow, switchbacked, and unimproved in places — long bypassed by Interstate 40 to the south. At the top of the pass the desert opens out toward California, and the descent into Oatman is steep enough to make you ride the brakes. The town below was a gold camp in the 1910s, and the burros that once worked the mines still wander the main street as if nothing had changed.
