Beautiful place only a short distance from Tucson Arizona. Well worth the visit!
Going up to Mt Lemmon is like going to a different world in comparison to the surrounding desert. There are several different ecosystem zones as you go up in elevation. At the top are aspens and conifers and the temps were about 20 degrees F cooler than at the bottom. There is a lot of really cool wildlife and many beautiful trails.
Amazing views! 20 degrees cooler than Tucson in the summer. Many hiking trails. Wonderful sunsets.
A Jewel in the desert 🌵 ! Great getaway from the summer heat. Beautiful anytime of year , especially in the fall. Great hiking and picnic opportunities. A Tucson Treasure !
This is a great place to escape the city and enjoy what the southwest offers. There is a road that takes you up to the top. Keep in mind the difference between the bottom and top is like comparing day time to nigh t time temperature wise. If you are going between November and March, make sure to pack a warm pair of clothes. If you go in October, the fall footage is pretty incredible. There is a small town where tourists can eat and buy things. During the winter, there is a ski resort where people can go skiing. This is a fantastic place for nature lovers.
Awesome place for skiing, hiking or just for some relaxation. The drive from Tucson can get a bit tough, so make sure you have a good car, lots of gas and a map/navigator. Our mobile phone's signal was weak, too.
Great place to visit to get away from the desert scenery. Nice temperate area with trees and the color green. Vast views and awesome picture opportunities. Great trails and nice place to visit.
