Saguaro (Carnegiea gigantea)Observer
msnanceDescription
Took a trip today to see this saguaro: Go N on I-10 to West Avra Valley Road, exit 242. Go way west 16 miles, past the Santa Cruz River, Marana regional airport, and Pump Station Road. Watch for cattleguard crossing the blacktop, continue a mile or 2 to the second cattleguard on road. Maybe 30-50 feet on the left is a dirt path into the desert that runs 150 feet parallel to the road.
