Panther Peak Wash - Roadrunner Loop

This is a nice hike that gives a sense of why the Tucson Mountains are called "The Tucson Chaos" by some. The first leg of the trail starts at the Cam-Boh picnic area and goes for 1.25 miles to the Panther Wash. You can quickly reach the ridgeline of both Safford Peak and Panther Wash after following the Panther Wash north. The Tucson Mountains are thought to have been a volcanic top on top of the Santa Catalina Mountains. The Tucson Mountains slid 20 miles west leaving the Tucson basin in between. The roadrunner trail leads to the cam-boh picnic area at the foothills of Panther Peak.
