Gunsight Pass AZ

I went on a short but fun trip south of Tucson today and decided to post pics since I got a new camera.

My truck.




From just below Gunsight Pass.



And what's left of a ghost town Helvetia

On the north ridge of the Santa Ritas. The town, or really one building, is called helvetia. When I was a kid, there was still actually walls up. You can get there with a car. Let me know when you come to town. Maybe we can set something up.

Lemme know if you ever head down towards Bullhead, and we'll see about setting something up. There's a grip of great trails and lots of old mines and buildings around here...

Sweet! We need more yotatech runs, there is a lot of wheeling here. Even though I don't have a yota anymore I would love to go wheeling with y'all.
