  • Foothills History Booklet
    TIME TRAVEL THROUGH THE HISTORY OF THE CATALINA FOOTHILLS AND TANQUE VERDE VALLEY by Bob Ring It took 12 million years to form the Santa Catalina Mountains that we know today - one of the most beautiful and ecologically diverse regions in the U.S. July 2009 AUTHOR’S NOTES This article is based on the five-part newspaper series that ran in the Arizona Daily Star, Foothills regional section, on consecutive Thursday mornings from April 23 to May 21, 2009. The story covers the Catalina Foothills and Tanque Verde Valley’s geological for- mation and early history, exploration and initial settlement, access to natural recreation areas, and residential and commercial development. My original vision for this project was a single article containing the whole story - im- practical for publication in a newspaper. Therefore, after the newspaper series concluded, I put together this booklet to fulfill my complete objective. Also, in this integrated article, I took the opportunity to include significant new material not covered in the newspaper. For the purposes of the combined history, I define the Catalina Foothills to include ZIP codes 85718 and 85750 and the Tanque Verde Valley to include ZIP codes 85715 and 85749. I took all of the photographs included with this booklet. For comments or questions, please contact me via e-mail at [email protected]. Formation and Early History Imagine that you are in a time machine, sitting in La Encantada shopping mall’s parking lot. You look out to see the beautiful Santa Catalina Mountains. Now you push a but- ton and travel back in time twelve million years.

  • From the Desert Floor in the Heart of Arizona's Santa Catalina Mountains Rises Mount Lemmon, a Climb of Epic Proportions
    United States Rising FromArizona the desert floor in the heart of Arizona’s Santa Catalina Mountains rises Mount Lemmon, a climb of epic proportions and breathtaking beauty Words JAMES SPENDER Photography PATRIK LUNDIN 70 CYCLIST.CO.UK CYCLIST.CO.UK 71 United States ’ve been riding for two miles when it finally clicks. ‘Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner, but he knew it wouldn’t last. Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona, for some California grass.’ The Beatles’ ‘Get Back’ is the reason why the words Tucson and Arizona seem so inextricably linked in my mind, possibly the only reason before this trip that I knew where Tucson actually was. In the two miles we’ve been cycling (we’re in the United IStates so imperial measurements rule) I’ve learned from my ride companion, Miguel, that Tucson is Arizona’s second city to Phoenix – population half a million – and Arizona is one quarter of the ‘Four Corners’, the sole quadripoint in the USA where four states butt heads, the others being Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. Miguel tells me he’s spent the winter months training with the runner-up of Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Canadian Michael Woods, who is one of a number of ‘snowbirds’ – out-of-towners who flock to Uncle Sam’s southwest corner each winter for a slice of Arizona’s 350 sunny days per year. He also informs me that the cactus here are cactus, not cacti, and one such cactus is so proudly indigenous it is a protected species.
