Bisbee is built into the sides of the mountain, and many of the homes have challenging sets of stairs providing "access." Rather than complain about it, Bisbee has embraced its stairs, creating an annual race called the Bisbee 1000.
The actual event is in mid-October, but that didn't stop us from walking the 4.5 mile course. It' a great way to explore this small Arizona city of about 5000 people. There are a total of nine numbered staircases.
There are all sorts of interesting things to look at along the way.
Unlike most of our walks/hikes, we took our time on this one but eventually finished all of the staircases. I was proud of Callie for staying out of trouble with several loose dogs around. There is only one picture at the very end reminding us of her presence.
