Tucson Mountain Park / Gilbert Ray CG

Would like to plan on a week at this CG late Jan next year. Being a first come first serve CG, can anyone tell me if it's difficult to get into? Would be leaving Catalina SP for Gilbert Ray on a Monday.
  • We were in Tucson in Dec. 2015. Drove through Gilbert Ray to check it out, it was less than 1/2 full. Nice CG plenty of room between sites and room for big rigs.
    Hope this helps

  • This is one of our favorite CG in Arizona! We've been there numerous times from January through March and have never had a problem getting a spot. It's a lovely spot, great for hiking and/or biking. Lots of wildlife!
  • we have stayed there the last 2 years. Great park. Had no trouble getting a spot.
