My mom came down for a few day's visit over the holidays. One afternoon we were able to get together with my uncle, aunt & cousin for an afternoon hike near the Whetstone Mountains, south of Benson, AZ. It was a nice day to be out for a walk.
Looking east at the Dragoon Mountains.
There are a lot of mine shafts & adits in this area.
I think this is some variety of mammillaria
Plenty of agave about.
And prickly pear, too.
This may be a rainbow cactus, but I'm not certain.
All in all, a good day for a bit of a wander.
Thanks for looking.
