Tier Point Run to Tucson in Oct 2024: Day 7 – Summary

The end of another exciting TP run; exciting for me anyway!

My first time in Tucson, Arizona and I was pleasantly surprised. I have to declare that I didn’t visit Tucson Downtown – perhaps I’ll do that next time.

But the surrounding landscape and attractions are very much worth a visit. Mount Lemmon was stunning and I am sure there are other similar tourist spots that form part of the Sky Islands mountain ranges.

The PIMA Air & Space Museum is worth a visit and a drive around the AMARG boneyard to see some of the stored US Airforce jets.

The Hilton hotels around the airport were all a little dated and perhaps explains why they were on the cheap side. But I wasn’t too concerned about that.

I enjoyed the best Indian meal I have tasted in the US and I enjoyed another visit to my favourite restaurant in the US: The Cheesecake Factory. Inn-n-Out Burger is becoming one of my favourite burger joints as well.
