About Benson
Benson is a small town in Cochise County, set on the dry grasslands of the San Pedro valley at about 1,100 metres above sea level. It grew up around the railroad and is a common stop for travellers heading to the Chiricahua Mountains and the old mining country nearby. The surrounding landscape is wide and open, with desert scrub, mesquite and mountain ranges rising on the horizon.
What to watch on the camera
Depending on the view, you may see open sky, passing clouds and the changing colour of the hills. Late afternoon and sunset are often the most striking moments, when low sun lights the ranges and the sky can turn orange or violet. Summer brings strong afternoon storms, so the stream is worth checking if you are interested in weather over the valley.
Climate and getting around
Benson has a hot desert climate, with very hot summers and mild winters, and the best time to visit is generally from October to April. The town is a convenient base for exploring southeastern Arizona. Nearby cameras on this site include Dragoon, Wilmot and several views in Tucson, which are useful for comparing conditions across the region.
