Mt. Lemmon
 
 
Jacob's Review:  A real forest all over in the mountains here, but I didn’t see any bears. You might not think it will be cold but it is - even when it’s hot.
     There is rock climbing up here, easy enough for kids or hard for really good climbing people. We had a picnic at the bottom and people took turn climbing.
     Oh yea, we went to the top of the mountain another time and rode on the ski lift - it was in the summer so there wasn't really snow - but you could see everything far away and there were people hikin and mountain biking.

Dad's Notes:  First stops… Rock climbers can be seen here learning how to climb and enjoying the outdoors. All along the mountain drive are nice trails, for hiking, picnicing and even camping.
     There are cabins for rent and a B&B.
     Be sure to stop in the mountain town of Summerhaven for a nice, cool shopping or dining experience.
