Ridge Trail to Juniper Flats Roa

Hiked around rural Bisbee today, a round-a-bout jaunt to Juniper Flats and back, with a little bushwhacking involved as we got off the path in a couple spots. Managed to espy the house we're living in from the ridge trail as we left town (yellow circle and then zoom closeup). The most interesting part of the hike was when we stumbled upon a series of structures designed and built by local architect and artist Todd Bogotay, one called The Shrine, and the other, the Shrine Keeper's House. 
Zoom close-up of the house we're staying in.

Repair of Tombstone Canyon Road several years after the road was washed out making it impassable to cars.
