Rosemont Camp

The Rosemont Camp is located in the southeast part of the Helvetia district, about 4 miles southeast of Helvetia, on the east side of the Santa Rita Range, in Barrel Canyon. At one time it was a flourishing village, but since the closing of the Lewisohn mines and smelter it has been almost deserted.2
