Travel vlog #5 | Jerome, AZ | Filmed December 2020

This past December, we traveled to the historic copper mining town of Jerome, AZ, about 100 mi N of PHX between Prescott and Flagstaff. Precariously perched on the side of Cleopatra Hill, today Jerome is a thriving artist and tourist town that still has an Old West mining vibe but, like most mining towns, has a tumultuous past.
