Sentinel Peak is a 2,897 ft (883 m) peak in the Tucson Mountains southwest of downtown Tucson, Arizona. The valley's first inhabitants grew crops at the mountain's base, along the Santa Cruz River. The name "Tucson" is derived from the O'odham Cuk Ṣon [tʃʊk ʂɔːn], meaning "[at the] base of the black [hill]". In the 1910s, University of Arizona students used local basalt rock to construct a 160-ft-tall (49 m) block "A" on the mountain's east face, near its summit, giving the peak its other name, "A" Mountain. The peak is part of a 272-acre (110 hectares) park, the largest natural resource park in the City of Tucson.

  • El picacho del Centinela (en inglés: Sentinel Peak), también conocido como la montaña A, es un acantilado prominente de la sierra de Tucson de 884 msnm, al oeste de Tucson (Arizona), más allá del río Santa Cruz.​ Los residentes de la villa cercana de Cuk Son fueron visitados por el padre Eusebio Francisco Kino, que estableció una misión o visita cerca de la misión de San Xavier del Bac en el año 1690. Cuando se fundó el en el año 1775, un centinela permanecía en la cima, apostado para el avistamiento de guerreros apaches. (es)
