Old Friends - two old rusty vintage cars in the high desert of Arizona. “Wickedest Town in the West”. Jerome Arizona. Located near the top of Cleopatra Hill between Prescott and Flagstaff is the historic copper mining town of Jerome.
Jerome was nearly a ghost town until the state offered free houses to anyone willing to occupy them and fix them up. Artists moved in and inhabited the structures which appear to be hanging on to the cliffside for dear life.
Underneath the town is vast mining tunnels that often blew up and burned with mine fires that lasted for months.
Cracks in foundations and building that slide from one side of the street to the other is all just part of the charm as is the ghosts of prostitutes and miners that are said to walk the streets at night.
Just past the galleries, restaurants, and gift shops in Jerome is the Gold King Mine with its eccentric collection of old mining equipment and vehicles from the past.
