Copper Canyon Tour 

All aboard Dec 11-18 for another of our grand experiences in Copper Canyon….and call Dave at 217.369.9897 or email davehensleigh@gmail.com right away- it is just around the corner. This trip is a full experience up and down the CHEPE railway and includes visits to the lovely Noritari and the historic and pottery areas of Casas Grandes and Mata Ortiz.

Gondola in Copper Canyon

The new gondola in Copper Canyon has just opened and will be a part of our experience there. There is lots of controversy surrounding this new tourist attraction –  but it cannot be argued that it is amazing (reported to be the highest in the world) and that it will attract tourists. The main concern is for the well-being, land, and culture of the indigenous Tarahumara Indians- the barefoot runners made famous by “Born to Run“.

Video of the Copper Canyon gondola can be seen at our blog.

Just after the first of the year, we have another excursion to the Sierra Madres- Jan 2-11.
