Hi Jolly….I mean Haiji Ali

This is where the camel experiment took place. They brought camels form the Sahara to here in Arizona to see if they could be used as beasts of burden across this wide desert. It didn’t work out…every one has there own “real” reason why; in any event, they set some of them free. The ashes of the last camel and their handler Hi Jolly (the locals’ version of the guy’s real name) are buried here under a stone pyramid with a copper camel on top. Just a bit of unique local color.
