Picture Rocks, Saguaro National Park

May 21, 2011

This is a view along Hohokam Road, a one-way dirt road in Saguaro National Park. We had just left Valley View Trail and were on our way around the loop to go to Signal Hill and Picture Rocks.

We drove to the branch of Hohokam Road and drove this one-way dirt road to the trailhead for Valley View Trail. It is a 1.5 mile trail prepared in the 1930's by the CCC men. It was a nice, easy dirt trail and we immediately found ourselves in a saguaro forest. We enjoyed the saguaro flowers and the birds that came to them.
