The remains or ruins of the Bowen Ranch House sit quietly in the southern end Tucson Mountain Park. It is an interesting departure from a nature hike in these parts.
The Bowen Ranch was home in the 1930’s to Sherry Bowen, editor of the Arizona Daily Star. The Ranch became part of Tucson Mountain Park in 1983. You can get there from Starr Pass Resort for a 5 mile hike or from the end of Camino de Oeste for a 3 mile hike out and back. You can read more about the Yetman Trail here.
