All of the above, BUT...
South of Wilcox is the Cochise Stronghold National Monument, with campgrounds, but no dump station, but worth a day or two of your time and exploration.
Next is Kartchner Caverns State Park, south of Benson about 9 miles. nice caverns and great campground. South of there is Ft. Huachuca, historical, etc. and south of that is a huge old copper and gold mine at Bisbee with the old town still there for us tourists.
Tucson has lots to see, San Xavier and Tubac Missions are south. The rock and gem show might be going on in early February. There's a big rodeo in early Feb.
