Day 534- Tombstone, AZ.


Got my cowboy boots dirty in Tombstone, AZ.

Established in 1879 as the Golden Eagle Brewery, Tombstone's Crystal Palace Saloon is one of Arizona's oldest, continually operating historic watering holes. Destroyed in an 1882 fire, it was rebuilt as a lavish casino and theater frequented by Western legends like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday


Big Nose Kate's Saloon in Tombstone, Arizona, was originally built in 1880 as the luxurious Grand Hotel. It famously hosted legendary Old West figures like Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the Clanton Gang. After a devastating fire in 1882, the surviving structure was repurposed into a lively bar, now operating as a popular tourist destination.


Located in Tombstone, Arizona, Boothill Graveyard was the town's primary pioneer cemetery from 1878 to 1884. Named for the fact that many of its occupants "died with their boots on" in violent shootouts or hangings, it serves as a gritty, historical monument to the deadly realities of the Old West
