Superstition Mountains~Nature Notes 012011











I don't know how many times we've driven BY the Superstition Mountains, Arizona, so Sunday they were our destination. Unfortunately we were shooting INTO the morning sun, so our photos didn't come out very well. But, we were able to take some pics of the surrounding plants and cacti. There were other people and families out on one of the trails, the birds were singing, the air was warm...aaahhhh....a beautiful day to enjoy nature! We are planning on returning next month and we'll plan our visit for late afternoon, when the sunlight is hitting the mountains. Nature Notes for January 20, 2011.

Beautiful! My Grandparents lived in Aguila, AZ when I was young. They used to take me here to go hiking. Your pictures brought back wonderful memories. Thank you!

Ah, you were in our neighborhood! I'll be so glad when we can return there. Looks like you had a beautiful day. Superstition Mountain turns a gorgeous red at sunset. You'll want to be there then. =)
