A delightful day trip to Bisbee,
in spite of having to wear all 3 of my jackets into lunch.
(but it says it has the best year round climate on earth.)
The town is all about mining.
Mostly copper
The Lavender Pit open mine
This is where 75 million tons of ore (copper, gold and silver) were removed
from 1954 to 1970.
I love the signage of JC Penney store on the sidewalk.
The interior is anything but reminiscent of Penney's
(ultra 'hippy'- for lack of a better name)
The Bisbee 1000 Great Stair Climb
The Great Stair Climb is arguably one of the most unusual and challenging events in the world. The 4.5-mile course features nine staircases (over 1000 total steps) connected by winding roads.
