| no partners | | Started out hiking the Cochise Trail, then decided to hike the Middlemarch instead. The trail was initially rather faint, but never disappeared, so I kept on. I got to the south trailhead, then decided to follow the #277 road south for aways into the Dragoons. I came to an abandoned mine, and the ruins of what appeared to have been a stamp mill. I poked around a bit, then headed north again, stopping to check out a stock tank that I had seen from the saddle. It was more of a lake rather than just a little tank. Lots of cows around there, too. It took a bit of research on the web and inquiring of the locals to find the story of Middlemarch. The Dragoons are a very cool area with an interesting history. |
