Formerly home of controversial display of hundreds of hunting trophies (no longer there nor part of auction). Owned by Safari Club International Foundation, closed December 31, 2023, headquarters moved to San Antonio. Criticized as using conservation as a cover for supporting hunting activities affecting endangered animals, it was founded by Tucson attorney Royal Bouschor and trophy hunter C.J. McElroy, who founded the Safari Club in 1972. McElroy eventually moved to Tucson to retire. He died in 2002 at age 88.

Driven past there countless times on my way to winter hiking.
Standing 134 feet tall, this roadside attraction is located at Death Valley in California's Mojave Desert. In 1991, successful businessman Will Herron paid Young Electric Sign Co. to come up with this majestic thermometer as a tribute to the world's highest recorded temperature, which is at 134 degrees Fahrenheit.
