The Camino De Oeste Trailhead begins on a portion of the Yetman Trail in the Tucson Mountains. We will come upon an old stone house that belonged to the Bowen family and read about its history as well as explore the Sonoran Desert at its finest. There will be an opportunity to continue on after the house to a lookout that features scenic views. This hike does have some areas with big steps up and down rocks and will have typical Sonoran Desert Terrain of a flat but rocky trail with some wash segments.
