Pump house at the Big Bug Mine, Yavapai County, Arizona. The Big Bug mining district was sixteen miles southeast of the town of Prescott, in Yavapai County, Arizona. It was part of the Bradshaw Mountains, the highest peaks were found on Mount Union and Mount Davidson at over 9000 feet above sea level. The Big Bug Mine, after which the district was named, was north of the town of Mayer, near Poland Junction. It was one of the earliest rich lode mines discovered in the area. It was later called the Henrietta Mine, and was staked by a pioneer miner in the district, Theodore W. Boggs.
