Catalina State Park

[Jkwinston]

Catalina State Park, in Tucson, is another one of these places which offer activities for people interested in outdoor pursuits; you can ride, cycle, follow the trails, and even head for the mountains. There are camping facilities with conveniences throughout to make your visit enjoyable, and accessible. Prominent among the crowd were the birders and the trekkers. I was there to check out native cactus collection. Jkw
