Coronado National Memorial commemorates and interprets the Coronado expedition and the cultural conflict and exchange between the indigenous peoples and Spaniards during the 1500's. The area offers panoramic views of the US-Mexico border and San Pedro River Valley.
At 6,575 feet, Montezuma Pass has sweeping views of the San Pedro River Valley to the east and San Rafael Valley to the west.
To get to Coronado Cave there is an uphill half mile walk to the entrance. This is a self guided cave adventure, the entrance and cave are unimproved.
The rangers recommend two light sources for each hiker and plenty of water.

| Our lights really didn't shine that far. |
