From the trailhead off of Phon D. Sutton road, the first part of the Phon D. Sutton loop is a short but steep climb to a rise that overlooks the recreation area. This shot was taken back from the rise a bit with just the top of Red Mountain visible in the distance.

Spring Bloom

Matt Perkins April 10, 2023

Feeling a need to get out of my apartment and the city I drove down to Picacho Peak State Park as I had seen it in passing a few times but had never stopped to check it out. In fact on a clear day from the top of South Mountain you can actually just make out the jagged edge of Picacho Peak some 70 miles to the south. I got a late start and wasn’t able to hike to the top so I wandered around on some of the lower trails taking in the views. Picacho Peak State Park is relatively small, but offers hiking trails, scenic, views and plenty of wildflowers during the spring. The park is also of historic significance as the Battle of Picacho Pass (the western most battle of the Civil War to involve fatalities) was fought there.

Deadfall

Matt Perkins March 26, 2023

I had family and friends visiting over the past couple of weeks which allowed for numerous trips back up to Sedona to hike the trails and enjoy the views. This is a shot of a deadfall tree along the Broken Arrow Trail which, if you hadn’t noticed, has quickly become one of my favorite trails up there.

Broken Arrow

Matt Perkins February 26, 2023

Last weekend I took a trip up to Sedona with my friend @laurabowers. We decided to try out the Broken Arrow trail, which was new to us, and found it to be a fun and easy 2.8-mile out-and-back hike with great views.

Welcome to Phoenix

Matt Perkins February 12, 2023

It’s game day here in Phoenix and we are hosting one of the world’s premier sporting competitions in our fair city. The past week has seen multiple road closures around the city to allow for the setup of various entertainment venues and a steady influx of people. Despite what I was anticipating, it hasn’t been too overwhelming either around the city or at work so I ran out a few days ago to take pictures at Papago Park and found about the same number of people as I would on any given day.

Mountain Road

Matt Perkins February 5, 2023

After getting the shot of Courthouse Butte, I drove into Sedona to find some early morning hot chocolate and found an entire plate of breakfast food to go with it. I then ventured up highway 89A toward Flagstaff. I drove through Flagstaff until I was on the small winding road making its way up to Snowbowl.

Sedona Sunrise

Matt Perkins January 29, 2023

For a while now I’ve been pondering the idea of heading out on a short trip that would involve an early morning sunrise and sleeping in my car. On Friday morning I left work a little after 3 am and drove directly to one of my favorite overlooks in Sedona after a short stop at home to get some supplies. Once parked I pulled out the down comforter I had taken from my bed, set the alarm for one hour, and got a short nap in. I woke up to temps in the low 30s and a sunrise that was starting to brighten the sky. There wasn’t as much snow as I would have liked but there is a clear dusting to be seen on the walls of Courthouse Butte.

The Desert

Matt Perkins January 8, 2023

The storms that dumped inch after inch of snow in other parts of the country came through the Phoenix area and brought some rain showers with it. Some days it would just be dreary all day and then some days there would be a break in the clouds just in time for some late afternoon sun to shine through. In this case the retreating rainstorm and the sun mixed to provide a picturesque shot of our desert with color found on the ground and in the air.
