Camelback Mountain is a prominent feature of the Sonoran Desert in southern Arizona. It is part of the McDowell Mountain Range and is composed primarily of Precambrian granite. The mountain has been weathered by rain, wind and other forces of nature over millions of years. This erosion has given the mountain a distinctive hump-back “camel” shape thus leading to its name. The area around Camelback Mountain is home to a variety of cacti, including saguaros, as well as a range of other desert plants and animals, such as jackrabbits, rattlesnakes, and Gila monsters. The mountain's summit provides a critical habitat for a number of bird species, including hawks, vultures, and eagles. This view of the surrounding area was photographed from the Echo Canyon trail on Camelback Mountain near Phoenix, Arizona, USA.

The Rocky Mountain Zinnia (Zinnia grandiflora), sometimes called prairie zinnia or wild zinnia, is a perennial that grows 4-8 inches high in small mounds and slowly spreads to become a groundcover. From mid-summer until fall it has bright yellow flowers that cover the plants. Wild zinnias grow in hot sunny spots on rugged terrain with well-drained soil. They are a north and central American native growing in the Southwest and on down to Central America. These Rocky Mountain Zinnias were photographed at Homolovi State Park near Winslow, Arizona, USA.
