Halloran Springs and Halloran Summit (also known as Yucca Grove) were long stops for travelers heading through the Mojave Desert, dating back over a thousand years. As roads were built through the desert, these settlements became important stops on those early highways as people traveled between Southern California and Las Vegas.
Eventually, the roads became U.S. State Route 91 and later Interstate 15. But with the coming of the Interstate and better automobiles, less people needed to stop when traveling these roads, and the settlements began to fade.
Now, both Halloran Springs and Halloran Summit have been abandoned for decades, and their history largely forgotten. In this video we explore both settlements as we learn about their past. We come across a number of abandoned buildings, a few the scene of terrible crimes or unfortunate accidents, see the iconic Lo Gas sign up close, visit ancient petroglyphs that millions of people drive by every year without knowing they are there, and find out what's left of Halloran Springs and Halloran Summit.
