The Chiricahua Journals.
For more than one hundred years, the Morrow
family has lived in the historic and picturesque Chiricahua
Mountains in southeastern Arizona’s Cochise County.
The Chiricahuas, one of
the “sky island” ranges rising out of southern
Arizona’s Sonoran desert, soar to an altitude of nearly
10,000 feet. These mountains boast a dizzying array of
plant and animal life — which is why the American Museum of
Natural History long ago located its Southwestern Research
Station here. In the 1800s, they were home to the legendary
Apache chiefs Cochise and Geronimo, as well as the colorful
mining boom towns of Galeyville and Paradise.
The Chiricahuas are secluded and private, yet easily
accessible from Tucson, Phoenix, or El Paso via Interstate
10 and county-maintained roads.

special corner of the southwestern United States.
