Description: Tortilla Flat, Arizona is an unincorporated community in the Superstition Mountains in eastern Maricopa County, Arizona, located along the Apache Trail (Arizona State Route 88). With an unofficial population of 6, it originated as a campground for prospectors, and later was a freight camp for the building of the Theodore Roosevelt Dam. It is now owned and operated by Alvin Ross, a farmer from Indiana who purchased the town – which consists primarily of a bar/restaurant, a country store and a mercantile/gift shop – in 1998.The Tortilla Flat Museum is a recreation of a schoolhouse. It marks the site where an "Accomodation School" was started on September 23, 1932, with 14 students. (Description source: Sign on site.)
