🌵 | Forgotten Ghost Towns of Arizona

Ever wonder what history looks like when it’s left untouched in the middle of the desert?

Join A&G Adventures as we journey deep into Arizona’s forgotten past, exploring three eerie ghost towns that most have never heard of: Sasco, Alto, and Sundad.

🏚️ Sasco, AZ
Once home to the Southern Arizona Smelter Company, Sasco was a bustling company town west of Red Rock. Now, it’s a crumbling ghost town where you can walk through the haunting remains of its smelter, workers’ quarters, and graveyards of rusted metal.

⛰️ Alto, AZ
High in the Santa Rita Mountains lies Alto, once known as El Plomo. With steep mountain mines and rich stories—like Mimi Bond, one of the first female postmasters in the U.S.—this place is as scenic as it is historic.

🌵 Sundad, AZ
A town with a strange and mysterious past—first a mining site, then a proposed sanatorium in the 1920s. By the 1950s, it had already slipped into legend. Explore eerie desert ruins and the remnants of what could have been.
