Bouse, Arizona

---

We made 2 trips to Bouse. The first with friends Patti, Karl, Linda, and Jamie. During this trip we saw the Bouse Fisherman Intaglio, Quinn Pass, and Quartzsite intaglio. The second with Moira and Chuck. This trip we saw the Bouse Museum and Assay Office, Farmers' Market and Swap Meet, and ate at fish and chips at The Country Kitchen.

Bouse Fisherman
This image of a fisherman with a spear pointed at fish in the water is thought to be between 500 to 2000 years old. There is a fence around it to protect if from destruction.

Quinn Pass
Thomas P Quinn had a mine and home in this area. He built a water cistern that served travelers even after he left the area.

Climbing the Mountain
Part of the path was narrow and you could see a caved in opening that had likely been an entrance to Quinn's mine.

Hiking companions
Karl and Patti were our guides to find the intaglio and the pass. Always fun to spend time with them!

Enjoying the view
There were 6 of us together for this hike. It was great to have Linda and Jamie with us today.

Mountains
Every direction there were mountains to view.

Quartzsite Name
On the way back, we stopped to see the "Quartzsite" name made of stones. This is a view from the site (does not show the name).
