Welcome to Two Guns and the Canyon Diablo Bridge. The ruins at this west end of the bridge are that of the Cundiff Store. Earl Cundiff came to Canyon Diablo in the 1920's. He built the store, gas station, garage, cafe and cottages all called 'Canyon Lodge'. He leased some property to Harry 'Indian' Miller in 1925 for the first zoo at Canyon Diablo, and Miller also built up the 'Apache Death Cave' (GC3CJ7P) tourist attractiion popular with Route 66 travelers.

This cache is part of the Historic Route 66 Geocaching Project, a series created by the Historic Route 66 Association of Arizona and designated as an official Arizona Centennial Legacy Project by the Arizona Historical Advisory Commission.
