2022 Lunar Eclipse

A photo of the first lunar eclipse of 2022 was taken from the rooftop of my apartment building. Early cloud cover all but covered the moon for the first bit but did eventually break up to reveal the full eclipse and later stages. This is taken as the eclipse is slowly resolving and the sunlight is beginning to reach the moon again.

Ridgeline near, Ridgeline far

A view from the Pyramid trail shows two ridgelines of South Mountain in the foreground with the ridgeline of the Estrella Mountains in the background. There is certainly no lack of opportunities for hiking in this amazing state.

Phon D Sunset

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!

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.

Watson Lake

Located 4 miles outside of Prescott, Arizona, Watson Lake is one of two reservoirs at the Granite Dells. The lake and surrounding park are open year-round and are a popular spot for hiking, canoeing, and boating. The reservoir has an average depth of 50 feet and was purchased, along with the surrounding land, by the City of Prescott in 1997 to be used as a recreational area.

A simple case of the right place at the right time I managed to catch a mix of clouds, rain, sunlight, and a rainbow crossing the face of the Superstition Mountains.

Saguaro

The Saguaro cactus is one of the most prominent plants in Arizona. They can tower above the desert with an imposing height over 30 feet tall and weight (when full with water) of up to 4800 pounds. For such a large plant the root structure is relatively shallow with most roots only 4-6 inches underground but spread out from the base as far as the cactus is tall. Provided the right conditions the saguaro cactus can live 150-200 years.

Snow Moon

About 15hrs short of the February full moon (known by the Native Americans as the snow moon since this is a time of the year when snow is most prevalent) the moon rises over the peaks and radio towers of South Mountain.

Pyramid Trail Sunset

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.

Stone and Water

The Secret Slick Rock Trail in Sedona opens up onto a large Mesa with dips and curves etched into it through years of erosion. These troughs will collect and hold rainwater adding an unexpected element to what is essentially an enormous piece of rock.
