Stair Sights

OLD BISBEE "STAIR SIGHTS" HIKE

Join the Muleteam this Saturday to explore some unique art & unusual views by way of Bisbee's most interesting stairs. Be prepared to climb at a reasonable pace with planned stops for less than 4 miles. Bring water, lunch and maybe a camera, but no dogs. Back early afternoon or drop out when you want. Meet Nov 27 at 9am by the Old Bisbee courthouse fountain to begin the hike. Free. For more details contact Larry at 520-224-4951 or larryjmilam@gmail.com.

BACKTRACK - Holenstein Mine

With a last minute scramble to find substitute hike headers due to illness, Ken, Lindsay and Jan agreed to take on the task. Fourteen people began the hike to the Holenstein Mine (no dogs), most made it all the way up. It was a new hike for some and one we hope to repeat in future years. The red and orange colors were still hanging onto some trees and a real crispness was in the air. Most folks agreed that it was a slog to get to Holenstein, but worth the effort.

SIDETRACK - New beaver survey opportunity

I previously posted information about a beaver survey along the San Pedro organized by the Watershed Management Group in Tucson. Our friend Mike Foster has now been in touch to say that he covers stretches of the River which WMG doesn’t complete. He is looking to do some surveying next week, between Nov. 29 and Dec. 3, and would welcome help from any Muleteamers who are interested. If you would like to walk and survey with Mike, or even if you are available just to shuttle him, please contact him at 520-508-3727 or sarjuesos@gmail.com (email preferred).

In addition, Mike has indicated that on Sunday Dec. 12 he would be available to do a beaver-survey training session for Muleteam. This would prepare us for next year's survey. If you are interested in participating, please email me at ebernstein2001@yahoo.com. I will let Mike know what response I get.  -- Elizabeth
