Tombstone AZ: The Wild West Town Too Tough To Die Print


If your travels take you to Tucson, plan to spend a day in the famous Old West town of Tombstone. It’s about an hour’s drive south via I-10 on the way to the Mexican border town of Nogales.

There are daily events along the famed Main Street, including a staged shoot-out between characters representing Marshal Wyatt Earp and the bad guys at the O.K. Corral. Also programs at the Bird Cage Theater, Boot Hill Cemetery, as well as jeep tours and stage coach rides.

The historic town has also been the site of many Western movies, including Fort Apache, Duel in the Sun and Broken Arrow. For info, go to tombstoneweb.com
