A Town Too Tough to Die

Founded in 1879 by prospector Ed Schieffelin, Tombstone quickly grew from a mining camp to a booming silver town — attracting prospectors, pioneers, cowboys, and fortune-seekers from across the country. But it wasn’t just the silver that put Tombstone on the map…

🔫 The town became legendary after the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral in 1881, where Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and the Clantons made history. Today, Tombstone proudly preserves its Old West heritage with reenactments, museums, and historic landmarks around every dusty corner.
