Cudahy Camp

The 700 foot high pumicite outcropping in El Paso Mountains was between 1923 and 1947 the source for 'Old Dutch Cleanser', known throughout the U.S. for its cleaning properties. The camp itself has been reduced to concrete foundations. At this location, 12 men produced 100 tons of pumicite per week.
