A reservoir on the Agua Fria ("cold water") River northeast of Phoenix, Arizona. It's pretty full here due to the runoff from the monsoon rains. Looking west.

You don't usually see them with this many branches. Off Arizona State Route 97; map location, as usual, is approximate.

Plus a young one in the foreground. They only start to develop branches when they're close to a century old. Off old US 93, Burro Creek recreation area, Arizona, USA.

Saguaros--that icon of the American West, which are found only in southern Arizona and adjacent Sonora, Mexico! Some palo verde and cholla in the foreground. Off old US 93 by the Burro Creek bridge and recreational area.

At the Sonoran Desert Museum, Tucson, Arizona, USA. Looking south--Mexico lies beyond those mountains. The tall cacti are young saguaros, that icon of the American west--which only occurs in southern Arizona and adjacent Sonora, Mexico! Thank Hollywood, again--

Arizona, USA. Complete with the iconic saguaro!
