I am going to be in AZ south of Tucson.I'm gonna have a few days free to myself. Looking for ideas.I already got the airplane museum, Sonora hotdogs, seven falls/saguaro, and some wineries Anything else?Bars, strip bars, casinos, local food, antiques, etc.
Titan Missile Museum
>>2864688Seven falls is a good hike, start in the early morning before the sun rises or else you won't have a good time on the way backPima Air & Space Museum (think that is what you mean by airplane museum)Drive up and down Mt. Lemmon, there's a cafe at the top that has good (yet overpriced) dessertsDrive up Oracle Rd. at night because its eerily dark for a highway and kind of comfy (unless they installed a lot of road lights since I last went there)Bisbe, AZ is close by and pretty cool for a day trip as wellAvoid hanging around the more southern part of Tucson, near the airport, at night because it can be a bit sketchy thereHave fun!
>>2864820thanks, most of that is already on my list.i will be doing the 7 falls hike.can i get some recommendation on what i need to have with me? i saw is some knee deep river crossings.mt lemmon is on my listthe space museum is on my list, but I think i'll only have to go there before my flight back.i also want to go to the car museum, probably wont have time for bothI will be going to brisbe and tombstone, and will be spending a night there

And then get even more water than you think you'll need, just in case. I only say to leave early because it gets hot in the noon time when you are hiking back. I brought enough water, but my hike back was slower (and therefore hotter) due to being tired from the hiking up to that point. It is no problem if you have plenty of water though. Also wear lots of sunscreen.I would also advise to look up the hiking route ahead of time and not be a dummy like me hiking in the actual ravine lul. There are hiking trails along the edges of the ravine you are supposed to follow that lead to the waterfalls. I mean you can go through the ravine too, but you'll realize its a pretty tough hike with lots of water and slippery rocks. At some point I went 'this is ridiculous, and where did all the hikers go?' till I looked up and saw thiem alongside the cliffs..Eventually you start out the main hike crossing over water areas, so you'll likely get your shoes a little wet. Not foot deep or anything (inless it rained like crazy recently). You should be able to cross over most of the water areas without getting a splash. Then when you get on the trail above the ravine its really straight forward where to go.
