Pusch Peak

Pusch Peak is the obvious pointy (when viewed from Tucson) peak that forms the westernmost end of the Catalinas. Note that the Linda Vista Wall is an aspect of Pusch Peak, and is described as a separate area under Pusch Ridge. So on this site, "Pusch Peak" basically refers to the long wall that faces NNW and is visible from Oracle Road. Linda Vista Wall is to the right of this wall and faces straight north. Kerry describes a small number of routes in BC Rock Climbs.

These routes do not receive much sun until mid or late afternoon. Depending on the route, the approach might include a short or medium length bushwhack to the base. All of the routes have wonderful views of Oro Valley's resorts and million dollar homes, some of which are no more than a mile away from the climbing.

These walls tend to be somewhat loose, and have a fair amount of vegetation. However, I have climbed two established routes there that I enjoyed: "Pusch Push" and "Dos Hermanos." The former has a lot of good crack climbing for a Tucson route and the latter climbs an attractive line up a conspicuous prow.
