Description
Pusch Ridge is the most prominent feature in the Pusch Ridge Wilderness Area of the Santa Catalina Mountains, located in the Coronado National Forest north of Tucson, Arizona, in the United States. It was named after pioneer George Pusch (1847�1921), who came to Arizona from Germany in the 1870s, and established the Steam Pump Ranch on the Ca� del Oro near the base of the ridge in 1874 in what is now the town of Oro Valley. George Pusch served as a state legislator and one of the delegates to the original Arizona Constitutional Convention in 1910. Pusch Ridge is primarily made up of Pusch Peak, Bighorn Mountain, and Table Mountain.

Donna, Beautiful landscape photo love how you have managed to capture the foreground and background of this photo with such clarity and detail. This is truly an amazing photo as your eye of the viewer starts at the bottom of the mountain and works it's way to the top where you are led to the steeps of the mountain and that sky overlooking the mountains. Awesome landscape shot, voted, google, tweet and FB promoted for CFC Round #26

I've wandered those hills many times. Rattlesnakes, cactus bites, javelinas, bugs, skeeters and all of it. What a wonderful place; but in the winter!
