This is a quick study of cacti in the area, in particular, the giant saguaro. Note the repetition of color stroke waves from the mountains to the sky. Northeast of Phoenix is the nearly 3 million acres of Tonto National Forest. I was only able to touch the southern end of this huge, diverse area, Roosevelt Lake being my destination thru the Superstition Mountains. This land is still very rugged with limited access. Harsh winters are common. Amazing, that about 50 miles southwest is Phoenix, where harsh winters is not a phrase in their vocabulary.
