The Arizona Store That’s In The Middle Of Nowhere But So Worth The Journey
Route 66, a.k.a. The Main Street of America, darts through a small unincorporated community in Arizona’s Mohave County. Maybe you’ve heard of it, it’s called Hackberry. Once upon a time, silver mines created quite a boom in the small community and then, just as fast as they sprang up, the demand dried up due to fluctuating prices of silver. Most of the town disappeared, but not Hackberry General Store.
