The mountains surrounding Tucson all belong within several ranges. To the south, there is nothing until Mt. Wrightson & Mt. Hopkins. To the east lies Mica Mountain and Rincon Peak. To the west lies the Tucson Mountains and Wasson Peak (these are the closest to the city center). To the north lie the Catalina Foothills which lead up to the Santa Catalina Mountains. Mt. Kimble and Thimble Peak are the most recognizable peaks from town.
