White Mountains and copper mine March 1












Driving out of Navajo and then Apache country we drove over the White Mountains on the Coronado Trail, a natioanl scenic byway. Finding snow again, the road had many hairpin turns without any guard rails. At times it was frightening, especially when Sharon was driving and the cliff was on the passenger side of the road (vice versa for Sharon when I was driving ). At the end of the road out of the mountains, we saw the largest copper mine in the US in Morenci. The rest of the trip to Sierra Vista was uneventful.
