Abandoned America: Twin Arrows, Arizona
On Interstate 40, west of Winslow, Arizona, you will find Twin Arrows, an old Route 66 trading post. Situated where the Route 66 alignment meets up with the Interstate, the trading post has a highway exit, but has been abandoned for some years, the price of a gallon of gasoline forever frozen at $1.36.
