Description

A 7 hour, 8 mile round trip hike that climbs 1700 feet to the highest point in the Tucson Mountains, arriving just in time to enjoy the 360 degree view of the sunset. The descent of the trail is solely under the light of the moon. The hike is at an easy pace but is considered some-what difficult due to rough terrain and hiking after dark.

Reservation or Registration: Yes

Reservations required, the hike is limited to 18 people. Please visit the Redhills Visitor Center or call (520) 733-5158 to make a reservation.
