About Quartzsite, Arizona
Quartzsite is a town of 2,413 people in La Paz County, where Interstate 10 crosses U.S. Route 95. Travelers stopped here for water long before the highway came. A waterhole served the spot from 1863 into the 1880s, and Charles Tyson hand-dug a well in 1864, according to the Quartzsite Historical Society.
In 1866 Tyson built a stage station on the road between La Paz and Wickenburg, and the stop became known as Tyson's Wells. La Paz, about 20 miles away, was a steamboat landing on the Colorado River. Prospectors searched the surrounding valley for a century, from the gold rush on the Colorado in the 1860s up to the 1950s. In a small mining boom in 1897, the town took the official name Quartzsite, after the quartz found in the area.
“We slept in our tent that night, for of all places on the earth a poorly kept ranch in Arizona is the most melancholy and uninviting.”
- Tyson's station still standsCharles Tyson's 1866 stage station is still standing at 161 West Main Street. Today it holds the Quartzsite Museum, which covers the town's pioneers and its mines. The restored Oasis Hotel, first built in 1900, sits right beside it.
- Hi Jolly, the camel driverHadji Ali, born Philip Tedro around 1828 in Smyrna to Greek and Syrian parents, was called Hi Jolly by Americans. The U.S. Army hired him in 1856 as one of its first camel drivers for a Southwest camel experiment, and in 1857 he led the camels from Texas to California and back. When it ended he became a prospector, guide, mail carrier and freight hauler. Mining near Quartzsite filled his last years, and he died here in 1902.
- A pyramid for Hi JollyTownspeople spent weeks building a pyramid of quartz and petrified wood over Hi Jolly's grave. They dedicated it on January 4, 1903, and that same year the town cemetery was named for him.
- A steel camel on topIn 1934 the Arizona Highway Department set a steel camel on the pyramid, added a plaque and sealed the ashes of Old Topsy, the experiment's last surviving camel, inside the base. The plaque's dedication came in 1935, led by Governor Benjamin Moeur.
- 1.5 million winter visitorsWinter is Quartzsite's busy season, when visitors camp in the desert in recreational vehicles. Each January, vandwellers also meet here for the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous.
