PIMA COUNTY, Arizona (KOLD News 13) – Pima County officials are warning the public to approach the location of a recent landslide that tore down or destroyed numerous saguaros in Tucson Mountain Park.
The landslide occurred around noon on Sunday, July 25th, on the southeast side of Golden Gate Mountain. The area is not near any roads or paths in the park.
“We ask everyone to keep a safe distance from the area,” said Karen Simms, director of natural resources, parks and recreation for Pima County. “The soil is very unstable right now and it will take time for it to heal naturally.”
Although no one was injured during the landslide, Simms said the area is not safe to visit and people should not try to hike on or around the affected areas.
