Latourell Falls

Matt Perkins November 27, 2022

Latourell Falls is one of the few falls in the Colombia River Gorge where you could potentially walk right up to the water falling 249 feet from the top. Preferring to stay as dry and arm as the blustery day would allow, we climbed down to the water but stayed well back from the water’s impact point.

Phon D Sunset

Matt Perkins May 1, 2022

I made a last-minute decision to head out toward the Phon D Sutton Recreation area and ended up paying the price by having to nearly run up a nearby hill to get set up for the last colors of sunset. Situated along the banks of the Lower Salt River the area is an oasis for canoes, tubing and fishing.

Greetings from Thunderbird!

Matt Perkins April 24, 2022

I’m trying to break out of hiking my usual trails and as such went hiking in Thunderbird Conservation Park in north Phoenix. The park incorporates the Hedgepeth Hills, named after an early homesteader that settled in the area. The name Thunderbird comes from a WW2 pilot training facility located 4 miles south of the park. Hosting biking, hiking, and horseback riding, the park claims approximately 15miles of multi-use trails.

Pyramid Trail Sunset

Matt Perkins February 27, 2022

The Pyramid Trail runs between the 19th Ave Trailhead and the National Trail. It is an enjoyable, yet challenging trail consisting of a 1 mile lead up to a 0.8-mile steep climb through numerous switchbacks and then leveling off to a ridgeline view of Ahwatukee and the Phoenix Radio Towers.

Mountain Peak

Matt Perkins April 4, 2021

From the San Sophia gondola stop, the clouds would intermittently obscure our view of the mountains ten miles away. It was simply a waiting game until the cloud cover would clear and the mountains would peek through.

The Dragonfly

Matt Perkins June 7, 2020

One advantage of working 3pm to 3am is that I tend to be up most of the night whether I’m working or not. Friday night into Saturday morning I stayed up all night thinking I would just head out and get some early morning shots of the moon. After that was done I wasn’t tired so I decided to venture out to Butcher Jones Recreation Area along Saguaro Lake and hike the Butcher Jones Trail. This is a relatively easy out and back hike and at its’ furthest point overlooks the lake. It was here that I noticed this singular Dragonfly sitting on a branch and, not having a proper taco lens, decided to use my telephoto to get as close as possible without disturbing it.

The Road

Matt Perkins March 8, 2020

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
(an Irish Blessing)

Marcos De Niza Trail

Matt Perkins February 9, 2020

A friend and I decided to find a less-traveled trail of the offerings on South Mountain. The Marcos De Niza Trail starts at the trailhead off of 48th street, climbs quickly and runs along the ridgeline on South Mountain until meeting up with the National Trail. This picture was taken at the terminal point of our hike but the trail continues on for another 1.5miles before meeting the National Trail at the Buena Vista overlook. The day also highlighted the challenge that is dressing for hikes in Arizona during the winter months. The temperature dropped from near 80 at the start to mid 50’s by the time we made it back to the car.
