Description:

A matching set of giant arrows were repurposed from two rotting telephone poles. It was a collaboration between the Hopi tribe and a group of Route 66 enthusiasts who remain committed to preserving the history of this famous road. Hopefully, the trading post which included a gas station and diner before it was abandoned in 1995, will also be restored in the future. For now it sits baking in the sun with graffiti that oddly suits it and makes for a great selfie backdrop. The grounds are not in great shape so watch out for broken glass.
