I had an entire report typed up here and IE ate it! Bloody hell this pisses me off. So this time I'll make it shorter.

"Dates back to 1875. The mine produced lead, silver, copper, and turquoise. Post office opened in 1882. This was the site where two brothers named Hazlett were gunned down by a gang from Tombstone. John Ringo was suppose to have participated in this."

Once I can dig out my book I can scan it in and show the pictures from 30 years ago. Any criticism and help will be appreciated.

As for my "report" I'll make it shorter and to the point: Great little town to wander around, avoid the mines unless you feel like a deep swim or getting trapped and most likely never be seen again. Otherwise it was one of the best ghost towns I've seen so far.
