The South Mountains (O'odham: Muhaḍagĭ Doʼag, Yavapai: Wi:ki'tiyeda,Maricopa:Vii Kwxas), known locally as simply South Mountain, is a mountain range in central Arizona in south Phoenix, Arizona. It is on public land managed by the city of Phoenix as South Mountain Park.
Geologically, the South Mountains are thought to be a metamorphic core complex: evidence of movement of the North American tectonic plates from southwest to northeast and northeast to southwest, pushing up a series of mountain ranges including South Mountain. Other ridges with parallel orientation lie within the basin covered by basin fill sediments. The structural basin forms the current Phoenix metro area, which appears flat like a lake around mountains that rise over it like islands. The buried ridges are in the same orientation as the South Mountains, about one km high, and about one km apart from peak to peak, perhaps about 15 of them underneath the basin fill.
The South Mountains are an ancient and deeply eroded mountain range in western North Carolina. They are an isolated remnant of the much larger Appalachian Mountains to the west, and are separated from the Appalachians by the Catawba River valley. The range covers approximately 100,000 acres (400km²) in Burke, Cleveland, McDowell and Rutherford counties. The South Mountains are the highest and most rugged chain of the isolated mountain ranges which dot North Carolina's Piedmont region. The highest point in the range is Buzzard Roost, which rises to 2,980 feet (908 m) above sea level. The South Mountains are heavily forested with Southeastern mixed forests. Water erosion from numerous rivers and streams has given the mountains narrow ridges and valleys.
Arizona is the 48th state and last of the contiguous states to be admitted to the Union, achieving statehood on February 14, 1912. It was previously part of the territory of Alta California in New Spain before being passed down to independent Mexico and later ceded to the United States after the Mexican–American War. The southernmost portion of the state was acquired in 1853 through the Gadsden Purchase.
"Arizona" is a song written by Kenny Young and recorded by former Paul Revere and the Raiders member Mark Lindsay, with L.A. session musicians from the Wrecking Crew, in 1969. The single was Number 10 on the Hot 100 on 14 February 1970 and was awarded a RlAA Gold Disc in April 1970.
Overview
The song is about a man telling his hippie girlfriend, referred to as Arizona (it is not clear if this is her real name or a hippie pseudonym) to stop acting like a teeny bopper and follow him instead. Lyrics in the song mention the girl to "get rid of her hobo shoes, rainbow shades, and Indian braids", plus Robin Hood, the Count of Monte Cristo, the Countess May, and Aesop. The song was also recorded in 1969 both by Clodagh Rodgers (an Irish singer who was arguably Kenny Young's muse), and the Family Dogg. In addition the song was later covered by French singer Eddy Mitchell.

Child dies following hiking rescue on South Mountain
Hours after a child collapsed along a Phoenix hiking trail on July 2, police say the boy died.
According to Phoenix Fire Captain Shaun DuBois, crews were called at around 2 p.m. to one of the trails on South Mountain for reports of a juvenile who experienced heat-related issues. The child, identified as a 10-year-old boy, was found about a mile up the trail.
Capt. DuBois said the child was later taken off the trail and to the hospital via helicopter.
"Early reports suggest [the child] was out here with some relatives who may have been from out of town, and they may have been hiking on the trail anywhere from sometime around 9:30 a.m.," Capt. DuBois said.
Just before 9 p.m., the Phoenix Police Department said the boy died at the hospital. He hasn't been identified.

South Mountain Arizona Route
My wife and I took a trip down to South Mountain for a day ride. It's a great ride that has tight turns and good views. It does have a slow 25 MPH speed limit. It's also a short ride for anyone who is looking for a little extra when in the phoenix valley. It's about 10 min south of I-10 and doesn't take much longer to get the top of South Mountain.
LOOK OUT!
South Mountain has hiking trails so there are people walking/crossing the road. There is also a lot of people to ride bicycles on this road so keep an eye out.
Over all it's a fun little ride and was great for my wife to learn how to read turns up a mountain road.

Scorpion Gulch was built as a home and store by William Lunsford. This store sold Indigenous-made items such as jewelry and leather goods.
Last, we will have a visit to Nina Mason Pulliam Rio Salado Audubon Center. This center is a 600-acre park space in the historic Salt River corridor. Located less than two miles from downtown Phoenix, the Center is gateway to a lush Sonoran riparian habitat used by over 200 species of birds and other wildlife.

Over all it's a fun little ride and was great for my wife to learn how to read turns up a mountain road.
The South Mountains (O'odham: Muhaḍagĭ Doʼag, Yavapai: Wi:ki'tiyeda,Maricopa:Vii Kwxas), known locally as simply South Mountain, is a mountain range in central Arizona in south Phoenix, Arizona. It is on public land managed by the city of Phoenix as South Mountain Park.
Geologically, the South Mountains are thought to be a metamorphic core complex: evidence of movement of the North American tectonic plates from southwest to northeast and northeast to southwest, pushing up a series of mountain ranges including South Mountain. Other ridges with parallel orientation lie within the basin covered by basin fill sediments. The structural basin forms the current Phoenix metro area, which appears flat like a lake around mountains that rise over it like islands. The buried ridges are in the same orientation as the South Mountains, about one km high, and about one km apart from peak to peak, perhaps about 15 of them underneath the basin fill.
