    Chiricahua National Monument - Fungus on a tree

    I've been here twice and each time I have visited, it is mesmerizing and I don't want to leave!…read more This place is famous for their hoodoos and amazing rock formations that will leave you speechless and in awe! And while this place is a national monument, one thing our government could do instead of all the other nonsense going on is to upgrade this place to a national park. We stopped in here after spending time at Kartchner Caverns and today the scenic drive beyond the campground was closed because of the rain and snow that came down steadily last night. And because of this and due to the amount of time we had, we did a shorter walk along the Silver Spur Meadow. This trail is very easy, well shaded and what a beautiful place to view birds! I think may have seen 15 or more species in just the short walk we did here today. I was also here about 2 years ago and did the Echo Canyon Trail to the Grotto and that was such a lovely easy hike with all sorts of cool rock formations and I enjoyed climbing around. Id like to come back and do a more strenuous hike and when I get a chance, will come back and do the Heart of the Rocks trail! Visitor center is very cool with a really nice gift shop, museum, bathrooms and very informative rangers. Parking lot can be a bit tight but more parking available down the road. I was able to get a fun stuffed sandhill crane! I could spend a lot more time here and just love this place! Great place to get a dose of nature and love how the air feels at close to 5500 feet!

    Hidden gem. Way in…read morethe southeast corner of Arizona, south of Wilcox, we dropped in to the secluded national monument, a mountain island, in a desert ocean. We dropped by the visitor center and the kids were able to work with NP Volunteer Eric V., who was amazing. Eric was enthusiastic, and such a motivator with the kiddos. He swore in the Ruiz kids with their Chiricahua Junior Ranger badges, and helped us with a late afternoon idea to get the most out of the park. We drove up to Massai Point and enjoyed the drive up looking at roadside views of rock formations, like Sea Captain and Organ Pipes. When we got to the top, the kids were excited about the leftover snow...yes, snow. We got out to walk around the top of Massai Point and the Nature Trail. The top of Massai allows for a good panoramic view of the park and it's peaks. After a good 20minutes of awesome views we dropped into Echo Valley to see some of the rock formations up close. It's crazy how through millions of years of erosion left the hillsides full of balanced rocks, mushroom rock formations, and trails to see all of them up close. Literally, a playground of rocks in the mountains. Being in the mountains even at this elevation is different than the surrounding flats below. Temperature is different, flora, and fauna...all distinct up in the Chiricahua. Another cool thing is that the monument is the 104th dark skies destination. When it's dark, you can see stars for days. Stars the limit here. Looking forward to the next visit...and maybe an overnight stay.

They made many excellent suggestions and even gave me tips on a good location for dining. I was very pleased and pleasantly surprised by this quick stop. They have lots and lots of brochures about the area, they also sell the fun pass with coupons to various attractions and also have a gift shop to purchase items relating to Arizona, Tucson and the overall general desert area. There was parking at this location but is a bit confusing since there was some road construction going on but non the less parking was convenient and just outside the door.
