Historic Road - US Route 89A

One of only three historic Arizona roads recognized by the State of Arizona, Centered in Clarkdale. US Route 89A is plaqued with a historic 89A sign and the historic portion begins in Cottonwood, Arizona south to Clarkdale, Arizona and ends in Jerome, Arizona. All three towns have historic districts (Old Towns) with the road as its center. Clarkdale features a historic 89A road marker near the center of town, which explains the origins of the road as a trail about 600 years ago.

Reviewed By SDPeterson - La Quinta, United States

We took Historic Route 89A on our way up to and from the Grand Canyon. It was a windy road and it was around Labor Day weekend so the road was stop/go all along Oak Creek with people camping and swimming. The road itself had beautiful views bringing you from the high desert to the mountains. Along the way was some vista points which was fun as the Native Americans were selling their beautiful jewelry much to my delight! On the way home we hit some well deserved rain which brought out rainbows in the early evening, it was beautiful! As we got higher on the road we even spotted some elk!

Mingus Mountain Vista & Picnic Observation Point

Reviewed By 949cookieb - Kingman, United States

We've travel to this incredibly amazing 7,000'+ vista many times. Often packing a light picnic lunch to each at a nearby picnic table and other times just to cherish the superb view of the Cottonwood city vallen and Sedona's majestic mountains in the distance. It's always at least 15 degrees cooler than in lower Cottonwood and the cooler breeze through the Ponderosa Pines always soothes.

Hillside Letter C

An "American West Phenomenon" If you travel the West, chances are you'll see a few of these hillside letters. In 1922, the senior class of Clarkdale HS built the hillside letter “C”. Freshmen were put “In Charge” of maintenance. Some letters have been around for a century, many have a story to tell, and all are beloved community icons that boldly declare to all within their view. "WE ARE HERE"
