Where the Waterfalls Are
Swift Trail Junction sits in or near the Southern Arizona Sky Islands area of Arizona. Around Tucson, the Santa Catalina and Rincon mountains rise abruptly from the Sonoran Desert, and their canyons funnel rain and snowmelt over bare granite. Tanque Verde Falls and Chiva Falls sit in rugged terrain east of the city, and Bridal Wreath Falls is a hiking destination in the Rincon Mountains. These falls are highly seasonal: they can pour impressively after a wet winter or a strong monsoon storm and shrink to a trickle or dry ledge within weeks. Similar ephemeral falls appear in the ranges of Cochise, Graham and Pinal counties. The contrast of saguaros, bare rock and running water is the main appeal of this region.
