Most visitors to Phoenix Mountains Preserve are more focused on scaling Piestewa Peak (formerly Squaw Peak) than on the beauty of the foliage along the way. A close look at a barrel cactus will reveal clusters of multi-hued, banded needles.
Location: Piestewa Peak (Squaw Peak) - Phoenix Mountains, AZ
