Coronado - Sierra Vista

Coronado NF - Sierra Vista https://www.fs.usda.gov/coronado https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronado_National_Forest The Coronado National Forest includes an area of about 1.78 million acres (7,200 km2) spread throughout mountain ranges in southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico. It is located in parts of Cochise, Graham, Santa Cruz, Pima, and Pinal Counties in Arizona, and Hidalgo County in New Mexico. The national forest is divided into five ranger districts, which are not contiguous; each consists of multiple "sky island" mountain ranges: Douglas, Nogales, Safford, Santa Catalina, Sierra Vista. The Sierra Vista Ranger District comprises three mountain ranges west of Sierra Vista, Arizona. These ranges are the Huachuca, Patagonia, and Whetstone Mountains. Included in this area is the highest peak in the Huachucas, Miller Peak, and the region of the Huachucas known as Canelo Hills. The district includes the formerly separate Huachuca National Forest.
