Goldfield Old Mining Town

On one of our Saturday afternoons, we thought it would be fun to show the kids a little history of the area and the Wild, Wild West. There is an old ghost/mining town at the base of Superstition Mtn called Goldfield. We had a lot of fun riding the train around town, going down into an actual old mine shaft, panning for gold, watching an old shoot out, and much more.

Hunter is all dressed and ready to go to " the Wild, Wild West", where the REAL cowboys are.

Kinley, not so ready. Gotta love that hair!

Waiting at the train depot.

Panning for gold.

It's not just for kids! This is serious business.
