Pusch Ridge Wilderness Area, Nature reserve in Pima County, United States.

The Pusch Ridge Wilderness Area extends across 56,430 acres within the Coronado National Forest, featuring elevations from 2,800 to 9,100 feet.

The United States Congress established this wilderness area in 1978 through the Endangered American Wilderness Act to protect Desert Bighorn Sheep populations.

Geological surveys conducted in 1979 collected 55 rock samples for gold and silver analysis, contributing to mineral resource documentation.

The United States Forest Service maintains multiple hiking trails through the wilderness area, requiring visitors to obtain permits for overnight camping.

The south face contains Catalina gneiss with white quartzite bands, forming a steep anticline separated by valleys from the surrounding mountains.
