An amazing attraction nearby is the Shrine of Saint Joseph of the Mountains. It is located in the Weaver Mountains, about a half-mile west of Yarnell. This hillside shrine has a chapel, the Way of the Cross, replicas of the Garden of Gethsemane and the Last Supper. Felix Lucero sculpted all of the work out of reinforced concrete. The Catholic Action League of Arizona commissioned Lucero. The life-sized pieces are set among a tree-shaded area amidst the boulders. Visitors can take a trail through the statues or mediate in the beautiful park like setting.
You will want to stop and marvel at the sight below. There is a lookout point just west of Yarnell, before you begin your descent down to the Valley.

History:
The area around where Yarnell is today was covered with small mining claims. Then in 1889, Harrison Yarnell found gold near Antelope Peak. The town grew slowly and was eventually named after him. Yarnell continued to own and operate the Yarnell Mine through the 1890’s. The town’s post office was established in 1892. Then in the 1940’s, the mine was no longer profitable and was closed down.
Today, Yarnell enjoys its small town feel. The town continues to have mining and cattle ranching as its major sources of economic activity. The town has also become a haven for retirees and recently is a place where people escape from the summer heat. The town has a small commercial and service sector, which serves its residents and visitors.
