A cool desert wind threads through the narrow streets of Jerome as your small group gathers beneath the UVX building on Clark Street. Old wooden storefronts lean against steep sidewalks and the town’s mining scars press into the hillside; at night the lamps throw long shadows that make shutters and chimneys look like faces watching.

Wear sturdy shoes
Jerome’s streets are steep, uneven, and include stairs—closed-toe, grippy footwear keeps the tour comfortable and safe.
Bring a small water bottle
At 5,000+ ft elevation and often dry air, sip water during the hour to avoid lightheadedness.
Arrive early to find the UVX building
Meet at Unit B-7 on Clark St between the Haunted Hamburger and the Fire Station—arriving 10 minutes early avoids rushing on steep sidewalks.
Respect private property and quiet hours
The tour visits public spots and an exclusive house; do not trespass on private residences and keep noise to a minimum out of respect for residents.
Closed-toe hiking or walking shoes
Provide traction on steep, uneven sidewalks and short stair sections.
Light insulating layer (jacket or fleece)
Evenings at 5,000 ft cool quickly—bring a layer for comfort during night tours.
