Palisades Visitor Center Water Fountain

Highlight • Rest Area

Approximately 1 mile before small descent. Usually open and available to refill water bottles. However it was not open on 5/1/21, probably a good idea to call ahead and check.

Mount Lemmon

Highlight • Summit

My favorite road climb in the world. Twenty miles up at a mellow grade you pass 7 biomes from the Sonoran desert to pine forests. Every half mile is different. The views are stunning.
