weather in tucson for this last week of the year looks remarkably similar temp and rain-wise to san diego. highs in the low 60’s with rain at some point most of those days.

like i mentioned, you can go up the mt. lemmon climb as far as your legs and the weather allows. it hasn’t been a super cold set of storms so you may be able to get up to that natural turn around spot on the climb 16.5 miles in. it’s just before the trees start and where the road goes from skirting the edges of the mtn to actively entering it.

even if you only do five miles or so of the climb, it (and the surrounding area) will be worth your time/effort.
