Courtland Arizona Territory Ghost Town, Part 03: Packrat Table, ruins, foundations etc.
Volume 03:
In this video we visit the "Packrat" table, that sits along the side of the road. It might be some sort of a geocache, but I'm not sure. We visit what was likely an old business that has a very nice foundation and concrete steps.
Courtland was another mining town from the old west. Like many of these towns, it had many amenities and was quite big and successful. It is located just on the other side of the mountains from Gleeson Arizona; just a few miles.
Like most of these towns, it had quite a rich history. I thought I knew quite a bit about the place, but as you will see in the videos, I knew quite a bit less than I thought.
A 1927 Sanborn map of the town can be found here:

Maps, photos, news articles from Courtland can be found at the Library of Congress:

Special thanks to Ernie for giving me some good information, check out his website:

Joe Bono, the owner of the Gleeson jail has a very informative website about all the towns in the area. There are pictures of areas on private property that we didn't visit, like the power plant.
Joe grew up in Gleeson and opens the jail/museum every first Saturday of the month, definitely check it out if you are in the area.
