2021 May Saguaro Flower 01. Charles Miles. 5/12/2021.
Blazing heat! Along the rim of the canyon we alternating walking, until it is just too hot, and driving, as an excuse to cool down in the a/c. The steep walls mean that with some (a lot maybe...) of luck you can look across to or down on the Saguaro Blooms.

And of course other things catch our eyes too - huge prickly pear flowers, birds braving the heat and strange growths.
