Tell me about Ajo, Arizona
Planning on stopping in Ajo for a few days. Our expectations are: we love history and architecture, birding, hiking, mountain biking, easy to moderate 4wd roads, etc. We are not arm chair snowbirders....

Ajo is a quaint town steeped in SW history. Its copper mining history, the suspension of that industry is worhty of study.
The surrounding sonoran desert and mountain ranges are full of sights. To explore them fully takes at minimum a 4wd vehicle. Better an ATV type.
Organ Pipe NM has gravel roads and hiking trails to places you would not think are of this world.
Stop at the visitors center there for info about backcountry travel, heed the alerts about water, services and smugglers.
