    Good Enough Mine Tour's Interests
GeneralWe are involved with preserving the mining history of Tombstone, AZ. Starting with the Goodenough, we will be restoring and opening to the public several of the silver mines that made this a boomtown in the 1880's. We collect vintage mining equipment, memorabilia and the like and will open a museum in the future. We also have a bar on the property, The Dragoon Saloon, because mining is a thirsty business.

About me:
The Goodenough Mine is one of Tombstone's original silver mines. Tombstone was founded on hard-rock silver mining, not cowboys and lawmen as popular culture suggests. The founder of the town, Ed Schieffelin, was a prospector who arrived in southern Arizona Territory in 1877 with a group of Hualapai indian cavalry scouts, recruited in northern Arizona. After arriving at their destination at Camp (now Fort) Huachuca he quickly tired of the fast-paced business of a cavalry scout, being a prospector to his very bones. he took to venturing out on his own, carefully studying the washes of the San Pedro River Valley for traces of float, loose rocks containing metallic values. Like a bird following a trail of breadcrumbs, he traced the trail of float up a system of waxhes and arroyos and discovered an outcropping of ugly, black, insignificant looking rock that he recognized as high-grade silver ore. The legend began there.
Who I'd like to meet:
People interested in learning the real history of the great American West, not just the legends and myths perpetrated by Hollywood and popular culture. The Goodenough Mine Tour is all about the real history of the City of Tombstone, it's mining heritage, as opposed to the "cowboy" gunfighter myths that have made the town famous. Well before the popular culture mythology of Wyatt Earp, his brothers, Doc Holliday, the Clantons and the like made our town famous it was renowned for the hard-rock silver mines, the miners, the great men who engineered the mines, and the hardy pioneers who built a genteel city in one of the harshest, most remote environments possible in 1880's United States. The real story of Tombstone goes beyond the Earps, Clantons, Doc Holliday and the like. This is still a living, vital, fun place to be and the real history is more fascinating than what popular culture has made this town out to be. Come and find out more by going underground and seeing the town's basement.
