Mt Lemmon

9121 E Tanque Verde Rd #125, Tucson, AZ 85749, USA

The view from Windy Point on Mount Lemmon, near Tucson, Arizona is simply breathtaking. As elevation increases, the ecology becomes markedly different, going from arid desert to forest, while the geological formations rising like pillars add to an already stunning scene. (As you can see, it’s a great place for a photo!)

Off-Roading Mt. Lemmon

Mt. Lemmon is my favorite place to offroad. The best spot is a road called Redington Rd, which runs along the Tanque Verde River. The Tanque Verde Falls is a must-see if you’re up in the area. There are so many water holes to explore as well.

The Cookie Cabin

Cute little bakery located at the top.
