White Cliffs Wagon Trail is part of an old wagon route used in the late 1800s to bring ore from the Stockton Hill Mines to the railroad. The wagon tracks have been cut deep into the stone and there are depressions along both sides of the roadbed, which were used for stubbing posts and ropes to help get the heavy wagons up and down the grade. History: The road was probably built by FF Brawn in 1890 to replace a poorly conditioned road to the mines at Stockton Hill. It was used to for heavy wagons filled of ore from the booming mining company at Stockton Hill (about 5 miles north of present day Kingman) and tufa stone from an adjacent canyon which was used in the construction of several buildings in Kingman. Information provided by the Mohave Museum of History & Arts.
"It was used extensively to haul ore from the mines of Stockton Hill to the sampling works in Kingman. It was the heavy ore wagons that gave the road its distinctive wagon wheel ruts and snubbing post holes. " - Mohave County Historian Dan Messersmith
On a hillside rock, an old painted advertisement sign can still be seen reading “You are welcome at the Old Trails”, a Kingman saloon from around 1900. Many saloons abounded at the time in the mining town of Kingman with colorful names such as The Nighthawk and Bucket of Blood. Use of the road began to decline after a new road was made around 1910, partly aligned with present day Route 66. It completely went into disuse following the flooding of the canyon in 1925.

Giganticus Headicus in Kingman, Arizona, is a giant 14-foot-tall head that's painted bright green (though it has been known to switch it up in color from time to time). This big head is part Tiki, part Easter Island Moai, and all kitsch. This Route 66 attraction is made out of metal, wood, chicken wire, styrofoam and cement by artist, welder, and New Jersey native turned local Gregg Arnold in 2004. Find this Arizona roadside attraction among other quirky sites at Antares Point Visitor Center & Gift Shop on Route 66. Formerly the Kozy Corner Trailer Park, Arnold purchased the property in 2000, transforming it into a wonderland of his art ever since. Some of the other artwork you'll find at Antares Point Visitor Center & Gift Shop includes giant robotic ants crawling up the side of the A-frame gift shop, a windmill with blades made from 1950s furniture, a plywood rocketship sign, and a drum full of “baby rattlers” (don't worry ophidiophobes, they're rattles for babies). A new “Guardian of Route 66” sculpture made by Arnold was unveiled at the site in 2021. The 16-foot-tall statue depicts a woman waving an American flag and carrying a big Route 66 shield.Address : 9855 AZ-66, Kingman, AZ 86401

History: The name ‘Hualapai' is derived from the word for “People of the Tall Pines” for the Native American tribe that once called these mountains home until they were, unfortunately, forced out by the military in the 1870s. In the 1930s the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) developed the Park's roads, trails, picnic areas, stone cabins and pavilions which remain much as they were, giving the Park a unique character all its own.
Wildlife Viewing: Hualapai Mountain Park is home to elk, mule deer, fox, raccoon, squirrels, chipmunks and skunks. There are also a variety of songbirds and birds of prey including hawks, owls and an occasional Golden Eagle.
