The drive up Medera Canyon is very beautiful as you rise out of the desert grasslands into the sky island of the Santa Rita Mountains. A three mile paved road winds up the lower reaches of
the canyon, right beside Madera Creek, ending at a fork in the stream
just before the land rises much more steeply. The canyon is also a famed wildlife location, in
particular for birds, with over 250 species recorded, while other
notable wildlife includes coati, black bear, mountain lion,
bighorn sheep, bobcat and ring-tailed cat.
