Superior, Arizona is named after Lake Superior, but it’s nowhere near the Great Lakes. A small town in central Arizona, Superior has a semi-arid climate. Due to its elevation and location, it has slightly more precipitation than some other surrounding areas. However, it is still dry enough to be the set for several famous western movies. The sand and stone outcroppings of Superior are iconic reminders of the American expansion westward; thus, it was used as the location for several science-fiction and western films from famous creators such as Oliver Stone and Clint Eastwood. A travel trailer rental from Superior will take you to see these iconic film sites.

As with many towns in the United States, Superior began as a place known to Native Americans. In the 1870s, a group of Apache warriors refused to surrender to the United States military. They leapt from a mountain instead of surrendering; the mountain became known as Apache Leap and is located near modern-day Superior. The town was eventually developed and named Superior because of the Lake Superior and Arizona Copper Company.

The company developed the town as a mining town. The mine was operational for almost 90 years before closing. During its operation, Superior supplied millions of tons of copper. Oftentimes, that copper was transported through nearby towns of Phoenix and Tucson. Superior is about an hour away from Phoenix and an hour away from Tucson. If you book an RV in Superior, you can drive along routes that likely carried valuable copper in decades past.
