BEST TIME TO VISIT: Spring, summer, winter, fall
COMMENTS: Directly on hwy 191, just south of Morenci, AZ. Behind a stone wall along 191. Visible from 191. Parking lot available, or drive through town... Very few residents - mostly vacant.
REMAINS: Main street is all boarded up, and in ruins. Only one or two stores remain.
Mainstay of town is mining for FMI. The historical main town street appears to have been desolate for years. Outer town of Clifton is populated, although dwindling due to slow down in mine operations. Gorgeous photography can be had on the main historical street. Submitted by: Ellen
