COPPER MINING IN BISBEE

Before we left town, we stopped at the Copper Queen Mine, which was closed in 1975. It's very deep.

It's quite colorful.

We learned a fact at the museum which Don found amazing-there are 2000 miles of tunnels underground that connect the different mines in the area. They had a map in the museum showing all of them. You can take a tour of this mine if you wish.

Of course, the town had to have a copper statue.
