What makes a good sunset in Tucson?
Tucson is ringed by five mountain ranges, and the saguaro-studded Sonoran Desert gives you foreground that's hard to replicate anywhere else. The Santa Catalinas to the north and the Rincons to the east catch alpenglow while the western sky burns. Monsoon season produces the most dramatic sunsets: towering thunderheads backlit in pink and orange over the desert floor. Gates Pass in Saguaro National Park West is the classic golden hour position.
