Sierra Vista: What's In A Name? - 03/31/11 02:49 PM
Sierra Vista, in Spanish, means Mountain View. So what? Many areas of our great continent have mountain views... so what makes Sierra Vista, Arizona different?
Another term, "sky islands," needs to be introduced. Sky islands are essentially small (usually) mountains, or mountain ranges, that seemed to have just "popped-up" from the normal terrain, and then appear much the same as islands that stand majestically above the seas.
The Huachuca Mountains are sky-islands, and provide the mountain view, or "Sierra Vista," from which we take our city's name. With peaks at 9,300 feet, these are real mountains, and they form one rim … (1 comments)
