Scorpion Gulch Field Trip - Sunday, Dec. 4
It was built as a home and store by William Lunsford. Lunsford's store sold curios, Indigenous-made items, sodas, and candy. It was still in operation in 1966, when Lunsford was 75. In the 1970s, it became a bar. Today, Scorpion Gulch, and its neighboring building are open to the public and is easily accessible and visible while driving South Central Avenue toward South Mountain. The roofs of both buildings are almost all entirely gone, either for safety, or nature's toll. It is rumored that the building was burned at one point in its history; however, this is not evident by looking at either of the buildings themselves.
