Today we went hiking with the Hardy Hikers of Far Horizons Tucson Village and the trip was to search for the rare but famed Macdougal Cactus! This took us up the Babat Duag Trail in the Catalina Range, just north of here.

Donna was our leader up this challenging and beautiful trail. The day was hugely windy, as you can tell by our costumes! And the scenery was lovely, as you can tell by my photos!

Note my peace sign on the first pic of Row 3.

We actually did see a Macdougal, which you can see in Row 4, center spot.

While I know that it's probably difficult to take a bad picture in this beautiful country, I am particularly proud of some of the photos I took this week.
