Tombstone reached its pinnacle of riches and then faded, all within the short span of eight years.
The West’s wildest mining town owes its beginning to Ed Schieffelin, who prospected the nearby hills in 1877. Friends warned him that all he would ever find would be his own tombstone. But instead of an apache bullet, he found silver – ledges of it – and the rush was on.
Its a neat place seeing how things was back then
A must see. This place is worth the trip by itself.
