Historic Route 66
Ash Fork, AZ

The bypassing of Route 66 by I-40 forced towns along the Route to sink or swim. This small community, like so many others, rose to the occasion reinventing itself for survival. Inside the visitor center is the Ash Fork museum that does an outstanding job documenting the town’s struggles, from fires to the Harvey House closing, as well as the triumphs of keeping the history of Route 66 alive for future generations to experience.
