Very cool and convenient little stop right off the road.

It's literally impossible to miss this when coming or going from Bisbee, it's massive. It was fun to stop for a few minutes and snap some pictures of this giant, gaping former copper mine pit, though you won't need more than a few minutes. There are some informational plaques and dedication monuments to read as well if you'd like. Parking was nearly empty the entire time we were there, and it was the weekend at that, so needless to say that this place doesn't get too busy.

An interesting site in Bisbee, AZ. If you're interested in copper mining or its history, then you should stop to check it out. A little out of the way, but you can stay at a historic hotel and visit Tombstone, AZ while you're here. It's nearby.

The Lavender Pit is not something you can miss if you travel along this highway. It is absolutely enormous. There's a pullover with a monument that explains the pit and a bit of its history. The monument itself is in good shape. However, be cautious of the fencing between the parking lot and the pit itself. The fence is rusted and has holes in it in places. Keep an eye on children and those who might not be overly stable on their feet as one slip forward and you will find out quickly how strong that fence is. I know I wouldn't want to find out that answer as it might be the last question you ask.

The lavender pit is more of a static attraction where you can view the pit from a safe location. It is pretty bumpy and rocky for a paved surface, but as long as the person can lift the walker (instead of drag it) occasionally, it should be navigable.
