-Highest point in the Santa Rita Mountains and the ninth highest in Arizona ... readily visible from throughout Tucson ... that "high mountain peak" to the south
-Named after William Wrightson, a miner and entrepreneur who was killed by Apaches in 1865
-Trails are well-maintained and easy, but the climb from the bottom to the summit is steady at 4,036 feet
-The hike is a prime birding area, and black bears are common ... two miles into the hike, there's a saddle with views of the peak
-The hike also features a Boy Scout Memorial dedicated to three scouts who died in a snowstorm on the mountain in 1958
