Sabino Canyon is a desert canyon in the mountains of Southern Arizona and a popular hiking destination. Sabino Creek flows down the canyon. Sabino Canyon began with the formation of the Santa Catalina Mountains over 12 million years ago. The present-day varieties of plant life began appearing between 6,000 and 8,000 years ago. The earliest human occupants of the area were the Native American Hohokam people. In 1905, Sabino Canyon was placed under the control of the United States Forest Service. This view of a Giant Saguaro forest was photographed from the Esperero Trail. Sabino Canyon is in the Coronado National Forest near Tucson, Arizona, USA.

The Ajo Mountain Drive offers breathtaking views of the unique Sonoran Desert landscape, featuring a variety of flora and fauna. Two of the standout features of the area are the Organ Pipe Cactus (Stenocereus thurberi) and the Saguaro Cactus (Carnegiea gigantea). The Saguaro stands tall, often reaching heights of 40 feet or more and living up to two centuries. Its characteristic silhouette, adorned with 'arms' reaching towards the sky, serves as a testament to its endurance in harsh desert conditions. In contrast, the Organ Pipe Cactus thrives in clusters, its slender stems resembling a congregation of organ pipes, hence its name. This cactus species flourishes in rocky terrain, its multiple stems serving as water reservoirs to survive extended periods of drought. These two are endemic to the Sonoran Desert and found nowhere else in the world. This scene , which includes Mount Ajo and Tillotson Peak, was photographed from the Ajo Mountain Drive in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument south of Ajo, Arizona, USA.
