Chiricahua National Monument

Sun Fun!

Stop by the Chiricahua National Monument Visitor Center at 10:00 AM for a one‑hour peek at our nearest star through a specially equipped solar telescope. Watch the Sun come to life as you safely view sunspots, dancing prominences, and swirling solar textures—all while park rangers share cool facts and fiery stories about our amazing star. It’s bright, it’s bold, and it’s a blast… literally!
