Sightseeing
This is a great place to walk and/or hike to experience the Sonoran Desert, right in our "backyard". You may see deer, gila monsters, snakes during your walk/hike. After the monsoons, the rivers inside the canyon will flow. If you do not feel like walking or hiking, you can pay to take a tram with a guide all the way to the top (about 4 miles up), and back.
