Chiricahua Peak
Chiricahua Peak is the name of a peak located in the Chiricahua Mountains of southeastern Arizona, located about north of the United States–Mexico border. It is the highest summit in the Chiricahua Mountains and the highest point in Cochise County.
As with the rest of the Chiricahua Mountains, the peak was formed as the result of a violent volcanic eruption about 27 million years ago.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chiricahua National Monument Geology Footnotes )〕
The peak contains one of the southernmost Engelmann spruce stands in the world. There are also extensive stands of aspen on the northslope. Much of the peak was severely burned in recent times, which creates vast open views across the landscape. This includes views across the Basin and Range to Mount Lemmon, Mount Graham, and Mount Wrightson. In addition Willcox Playa is visible in the basin below.
The summit is heavily forested primarily with pines.
