Arizona

Cactii and sunshine

Me, standing on a rock high up in the mountains surrounding Mt. Lemmon. Only the cloudless sky is visible in the background
A shallow valley river in the middle of the desert. The hills carved by the river are speckled with cactii and other desert vegetation
A hut carved into a stacked rock structure in the mountains. There's a window for taking photos
A tinfoil wrapped burrito I ate in New Mexico on the trip down
Branches of a desert plant reaching into the sky, covered in leaves and tipped with conical bunches of flowers. The viewing angle is up from the ground towards the sun
A suspiciously shaped cactus plopped over on the ground, with flowers coming out of the end of it
