AREA and LOCATION
Southeast Arizona is part of the Sky Island and Desert Seas where 11 mountain ranges rise from the desert floor. The environment hosts the richest biological diversity in the State of Arizona and has supplied the natural resources that have enabled a diverse and rich cultural history. There are plentiful public lands including the 1,780,000 acre Coronado National Forest. The Sonoita Plain is a grassy plain and part of the northern Sonora Desert and is bounded by the Rincon Mountains, Huachuca Mountains and the Santa Rita Mountains. In addition to its notoriety as an upscale retirement area, the Sonoita area offers a cooler summer climate with elevations ranging from 4500 to 5000 feet. The top of Mount Wrightson in the Santa Rita Mountains is 9,543 feet. The cooler climate compared to the desert offers an excellent location for horse properties. Also, the area and nearby Madera Canyon are widely known for its bird watching opportunities including a number of threatened bird species. Southeast Arizona is also known as the Astrological Capital of the World with renowned observatories such as Mount Bigelow, Kitt Peak and Mount Graham. The wet seasons of January and July bring rains that grow tall native grasses which are excellent for horse pastures.
The Sonoita area is approximately 50 miles southeast from Tucson, 40 miles from Sierra Vista and 30 miles from Nogales, AZ. The property lies on the easterly side of the Santa Rita Mountains, which create the dominant view shed for the property and the area.

The property is at the end of the private road and the address is 141 Crown C Road, Sonoita, AZ 85637.
