Catalina Mountains near Tucson, Arizona
Additional Details:
| The Santa Catalinas extend north of Tucson to Oracle, about 40 miles, and reach to an elevation of 9180 feet. While such legends as "The Mine With the Iron Door" and that of lost "Nine Mile City" have their locale here, there are also "pay dirt" workings by prospectors and small mining operations in the canyons and crevasses of the Catalinas today. |
