Oatman, Arizona
Oatman, Arizona is a mining town in the Black Mountains of Mohave County (elevation 2700'/896 m) which began as a tent camp soon after two prospectors struck a $10 million gold find in 1915, though the area had been already settled for a number of years. Oatman's population grew to more than 3500 in the course of a year.
