Tucson dark sky locations

Does anyone who lives near Tucson, AZ know of a place with good, dark skies?

I drove north of Oracle Junction and there was still too much light pollution, and so I will have to try another time even further away. I am curious how far away from the city I would have to drive to get ideal darkness.

I'm curious if anyone knows of some good public land away from civilization and smuggling routes where I could camp out...?

Anyone? Thanks...

Go just beyond the range to the west. I have driven just to the other side on Silver Bell, it's called rattlesnake pass I think, and the skies are much darker. I don't know how much better photography would be though.

Great, thanks! Do you know of any groups of photographers who get together in Tucson?

About every other month people go a little past picacho peak. Out there it is great, go to a astronomy shop, and they have a list of dates of when they go out there. I usually attend 2 per year. Its quite amazing.

I use to go to Saguaro National Park. I've taken many good images from there.

drive west from tucson, it gets darker. look at google earth and change it to show the light pollution.

I'm trying it right now from in front of my house... if I don't screw up too badly, I will try and go somewhere darker. Thanks guys!
