An afternoon ride up Route 66 in Arizona from Topock, through Oatman and ending at Cool Springs Station museum. The not-so-wild burros in Oatman and the twisty roads are a highlight of the trip.
Indestructible Icons - Cool Springs Gas Station in Golden Valley, AZ
Formerly a mom and pop shop on Historic Route 66, this gas station went out of business in the 1940s. Believe it or not, that is when the real story of the property began.
Rebuilt for the Hollywood film Universal Soldier it served as a set for several pivotal scenes only to be blown up in the third act. The explosion left behind nothing but ruins.
With the help of Route 66 historians and restorationists, the building was then rebuilt to its exact original design using family photographs for reference. Isolated on a now obsolete section of the famous roadway, the Cool Springs Gas Station lived on to inspire a second Hollywood film, the Disney/Pixar animated film Cars.
The culmination of decades of work and careful protection, the Gas Station now boasts a collection of antiques and Route 66 historical objects. It no longer sells gas, and runs on visitor donations with the stated mission of preserving the memory of Route 66.
The next time you are travelling through, we highly recommend a small detour to witness this building's improbably return to the world of the living.

ABANDONED Places in Arizona - Tribal Land
In this journey, Vlog 032 we drove 2.5 hours outside Las Vegas to Peach Springs, AZ. Located off the historic US Route 66 in Arizona. We had no expectation outside the ruins that were hand built by the tribe back in the 1800's. We ran across an abandoned hardware store, abandoned gas stations, and the crown jewel of the day was a NAPA Maintenance Shop that was trashed but totally cool to see!

Epic Ghost Town full of Donkeys & Real life Cars Land on Route 66
Weird Signs, Wild Burros, Ghost Towns, Inappropriately named mountains! It's 110°F on Route 66 in Arizona today, which means it's the perfect day to explore an old alignment of Route 66 between Kingman Arizona and the old mining town of Oatman, which is being Run by wild Burros! There's a lot of epic abandoned stuff to explore out here, but one thing that was never abandoned was the little mining town thats full of wacky tourist trap type Roadside wonders, and one little surviving piece of a classic Route 66 Oasis copied in DCA's Cars Land, The Cool Springs Cabin office! Also, there's an abandoned gas station around the corner from two very out of place looking old Route 66 restaurants that really blows my mind for some reason. We're back on the mother road for another adventure that skirts the line between fun and heat stroke!
SHIRTS!

【RV Travel - Arizona Season】Wild Burro on Route 66 Episode 3【亞利桑那州】66號公路上的野生驢子
La Vie Flottante is dodging the wild burros on Route 66 as we head to the ghost town of Oatman AZ. These donkeys of Oatman are an attraction for the tourists touring the historic Route 66.
Route 66 was one of the original highways in the U.S. Highway System. It was established on November 11, 1926. The highway, which became one of the most famous roads in the United States.
Oatman was named in honor of Olive Oatman, who as a young girl from Illinois, was kidnapped by an Apache tribe, sold to Mojave Indians and later rescued in a trade in 1857 near the current site of the town.
Oatman began as a small gold mining camp soon after two prospectors struck a $10 million gold find in 1915. Oatman's population grew to more than 3,500 in the course of a year.
But both the population and mining booms were short-lived. In 1921, a fire burned down many of the smaller shacks in town, and three years later, the main mining company, United Eastern Mines, shut down operations for good.
Oatman survived by catering to travelers on old U.S. Route 66. But in the 1960s, when the route was bypassed by Interstate 40, Oatman almost died.
The Oatman Hotel, built in 1902, is the oldest two-story adobe structure in Mojave County and has housed many miners, movie stars, politicians and other scoundrels. The town was used as the location for several movies such as How The West Was Won, Foxfire and Edge of Eternity.
Another reason makes this town famous is that Clark Gable and Carol Lombard honeymooned at the Oatman Hotel on March 18, 1939. Their honeymoon suite is still one of the major attractions at the Oatman Hotel. Gable returned there often to play poker with the local miners and enjoy the solitude of the desert.
Oatman is a fun place to visit -- an authentic old western town with burros roaming the streets and gunfights staged on weekends. The burros are tame and can be hand fed.
Oatman's wild burros are the descendants of burros brought here by the miners in the late 1800s; when the miners no longer needed them, they were turned loose. Each morning they come into town looking for food. They wander the streets and greet the tourists. Burro pellets and carrots are for sale at many of the shops -- the burros will eat all day if you feed them. Shortly before sunset they wander back to the hills for the night.
After having lunch at the famous Oatman Hotel we hop on our Indian to head over the Sitgreaves pass on our way to Kingman. After a stop at Cool Springs for a photo op we are headed on our way back to camp at Lake Havasu.
Next day, We walked around the London Bridge, ran into a classic car show! And, of course, can’t miss boating on Lake Havasu.
