Twin Arrows is a ghost town located in the central part of Arizona on U.S. Route 66 (US 66) between the city of Flagstaff and the town of Winslow. A business named the Canyon Padre Trading Post, named for the gorge that cuts nearby, was established in the late 1940s in Twin Arrows. Business was slow for the store and diner until the owners changed its name to "Twin Arrows Trading Post", inspired by nearby town of Two Guns and added a service station. Two 25-foot (7.6 m) giant arrows which were placed on the property were easily recognized by traveling motorist and the business began to fourish. The Twin Arrows Trading Post began to fail with the construction of the Interstate 40.
