Back to southeast Arizona, at the mid/lower portion of Montosa Canyon, just a bit past the observatory visitor’s center along the Mt. Hopkins Road.

    Wow! Thanks, Team Leader, for showing the variety of life seen in the canyon! Loved the HB shots, of course!

      Beautiful spot. This was at/around the amateur astronomer pads parking area, + bushwacking in the nearby desert. Nice spot with a good mix of vegetation.
