Pajarita Wilderness
Pajarita Wilderness is a protected wilderness area managed by the Coronado National Forest in the U.S. state of Arizona. Established in 1984 under the Arizona Wilderness Act, the array of canyons that make up the area sit at the western end of the Pajarito Mountains, and is a well known migration route for birds. Sycamore Canyon is the centerpiece of the wilderness, a riparian forest that supports over 160 bird species.
Elevation ranges from 3,800 feet to 4,800 feet, and the area provides excellent habitat for over 660 species of plants. The Sycamore Canyon trail is a popular hiking destination very close to the international border.
