Hiked to Mural Hill yesterday, about 8 miles round trip from our place. These cliffs are uplifted limestone sea beds known as Morita Formations (Lower Cretaceous—145-100.5 million years ago).

Tombstone Canyon City Hike
Morning hike #1: The Tombstone Canyon city hike (visible from our front steps through the trees). Just walk out the front door, climb a few stairs up to Laundry Hill, and on to the trail. 45 minutes later, it's back to streetscape. Then a quick 15 minute walk up through town and back home.
