State Route 82

Arizona 82 begins in Nogales, and travels northeast to Arizona 80 near Tombstone via Patagonia. The road is a quick access to the northeast from Nogales, and also provides access to Sonoita and Tombstone.
Arizona 82 is one of the oldest highways in Arizona, dating back to 1927. The 65 mile long road bisects the Coronado National Forest between Patagonia and Sonoita.

Patagonia is a small town located in the Sonoita Creek valley. The town was founded in the 1850s, and named after the long-abandoned Patagonia Mine.
