Brunckow’s Cabin

A short drive and hike from the boondocking location is an old prospector cabin ruins. Not much remains but holes in the ground and two small walls of what would have been a tiny cabin a few miles outside of Tombstone, Arizona.

IMG_0763IMG_0760From WikipediaBrunckow’s Cabin is a historic cabin southwest of Tombstone in Cochise County, Arizona. It is purported to be the “bloodiest cabin in Arizona history;” between 1860 and 1890, at least twenty-one people were killed there, many of whom are buried on site. Presently, little of the cabin remains except for some foundations and small portions of the walls. A few unmarked graves have been identified, but because of theft, vandalism, and erosion, the site has been heavily damaged.
