West OB Stairs

WEST TOMBSTONE CANYON STAIRS & STREETS
The penultimate hike of the Muleteam season features 3-3.5 miles of streets and stairs around West Tombstone Canyon. For some hikers last year this off-the-beaten-path included some stairs they had never walked before. We will conclude at 426 Garden Avenue for our snack lunch at around 11-11:30. You are welcome to just show up and chat. Meet Saturday, May 2 at 9:00am at the Bisbee Courthouse fountain. Bring water, a snack and hiking poles if needed. Leashed dogs welcome. Questions? Call Susan at (610) 220-5287.

BACKTRACK - Sandoval Cross (estrogen edition)
Three intrepid women joined me at the fountain for a hike to this local landmark, which is easily seen but not reached. (I've come at it from every direction and wound up with scrapes and ripped clothes.) This route utilized Laura's Loop (and how cool that the eponymous originator joined our small group at the end of OK Street!). We all managed the bushwhacking and scrambling down to the cross and enjoyed the rare view of town from that hill. I shared that I'd sent a letter to the address on the sign last October but never received a reply...I live in hope. We saw some cool geology & flora and quite a few praying mantid ootheca. My thanks to Susan, Anne, Lyda and Laura for their good company ...and big apologies for the lousy photo. -- Lindsay
