A new website www.azhighway83.com has been created for the Arizona Scenic Highway 83 Residents. 

This site was created to keep the Hilton Ranch Rd community informed about local issues that effect them.  Currently the primary issue that effects us is the proposed Rosemont Mine. Check out the Photo slideshow by Bob H click here for slideshow it may take a moment to load, its pretty big (Press ESC to stop the slideshow, or close the browser window). Be sure to take the Rosemont Mine photo tour, also courtesy of Bob H.

For those that do not know what an open pit mine looks like, here's a photo of the Lavender Pit in Bisbee Arizona, it is 1/3 as deep and less than 1/2 as wide as the proposed Rosemont Pit.  The yellow line is 1/2 mile showing the width of the Lavender pit.  The Rosemont pit will be 1 mile wide and 3 times deeper.  Remember that is only the pit, the tailings and waste rock will consume another 6 square miles of our Coronado forest if they approve it.

Please participate.  Read about WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP STOP THIS MINE
