HWY 191 Alpine to Clifton AZ

Post by wally w »

Very entertaining. After you leave Alpine going south or Clifton going North no gas for about 100 miles. At Morenci you pass the largest open pit copper mine in the world or so I was told. After that nothing but views of the White Mtns. There were curves so tight the wife and I were looking at each other. We were on the 03 Burgman 650.

Have not been in much of AZ at all. How many mile double did you often put on the Burgman in a day?

I was a young 63 when I owned it so usually between 3-500 miles a day sometimes more or less.

By the way 2200 curves 440 are hairpins in 83 miles.
