Copper Creek

Tucked into a canyon within the Galiuro Mountains of Pinal County, Arizona, Copper Creek is a ghost town that once supported an active community in a rugged, remote setting. The canyon location gives the site a dramatic natural backdrop that draws visitors as much as the history itself.

Today Copper Creek stands as an abandoned settlement where remnants of its past life remain visible against the mountain terrain. Access into this canyon environment is genuine backcountry travel, so come prepared for rough conditions and limited infrastructure.
