When I wrote my first blog about Bisbee, I mentioned the city was built on hills and that there were a great many stairs all over town. So, I decided to show you a couple of them.
And, believe me, there are many, many more…some interesting, some very plain. I noticed there was one that was very long and not real interesting that was the subject of a “Save Our Stairs” campaign. I hope they do…maybe even spice it up a little bit.
In some ways, Bisbee with its stairs reminds me of 
two other similarly-built cities…San Francisco and Ketchikan, Alaska. San Francisco, of course is much, much bigger, but you would be surprised at the number of stairs you will find spread around the city…especially on Russian Hill.
As for Ketchikan, it was difficult for me to go hunting for stairs there as it rains every day and I was only there for 24 hours before I had to catch another ferry. But that is a story for another day.
I do hope some of you get to visit Bisbee. Bring your cameras and your walking shoes as you may have to do some climbing. Adios for now.
