Flinstones Bedrock City






Roadside Oddities, p. 158
Players: Beth, Michelle, and Josh - April 2009
Directions: On the way to the Grand Canyon, where Highway 180 meets 64 in Valle.
Entrance Fee: $0


This is a blast from the past mission that was completed during Michelle's spring break trip to sunny Arizona in April 2009! On our way to the Grand Canyon, I remember seeing the oddity on the side of the road and telling Josh that Bedrock City was in the "Weird Arizona" book so we had to stop and get a picture! It was a "Yabba-dabba-doo!" good ol' time!

Bedrock City has been around since Francis Speckels built this place in 1972 with his family. The characters had prerecorded voices that unfortunately no longer work. Though the place is starting to show its age, I still thought the park was fantastically weird!
