Fall colors in the Chiricahuas

 12/24/2017
Christmas greetings form southern Arizona. 

Well I've gotten complacent again an behind of the blog.  We're in Ajo, Az. volunteering for US Fish and Wildlife Service at Cabaza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge.  We'll be here through Feb. 2018.

We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

Here's some fall color pictures from Cave Creek Canyon...

Nov. 2017
Being from the east, we're use to seeing a whole mountain lit up with colors.  Here in the canyon the predominate color maker is Sycamore which turns yellow in fall. 


About 2 miles up the popular South Fork trail there's a few maple trees recovering from recent fires, flood and disease.  













Coming next, a walk around Ajo, Az.
