Light painting on the Magic Path at the GLOW! festival at @trianglelranch in Oracle. We love this event that mixes art, music, dance and community - there are two more chances to GLOW on October 5th and 12th! Photo by @desertsirena . . 📍Ancestral land of the Apache

Palisades Beach, Grand Canyon - Colorado River mile 66 looking upstream at Lava/Chuar rapid. Before the Glen Canyon Dam was constructed, seasonal flows meant there was a low-water ford in the area that had been used by Indigenous people in the Canyon, by miners and horse-rustlers. . . If you visit the @grandcanyonnps website, you can learn about archaeological excavations and current Indigenous importance of Grand Canyon. Photo @desertsirena . . The Navajo, Hopi, Havasupai, Paiute, Hualapai, Zuni, White Mountain Apache and Yavapai Apache are all traditionally associated tribes in the Grand Canyon region.

Monsoon 2019 is almost over - here is a spectacular bolt caught on camera by our founder @desertsirena! Shot from the Babad Do'ag overlook, which is the Tohono O'odham name for the Santa Catalina Mountains north of Tucson. It means Frog Mountain. Pinch and zoom to see the complexity of this bolt! . . 📍Ancestral lands of the O’odham, Yaqui and Apache

Mist and clouds time lapse on Oracle Ridge, Catalina Mountains. The Arizona Trail traverses the ridge, reaching the Gateway Community of Oracle in the valley below. Video by @desertsirena . Ancestral lands of the O’odham, Yaqui and Apache

Arizona Trail/Oracle Ridge Trail - love this spot with the agave, the tree silhouette, and the ridge stretching out to the north. The wildflowers are still blooming in the Catalinas at almost 8000 feet elevation. Saw a Peregrine Falcon swoop high into the sky, circle and tuck its wings in to dive below the ridge. Also saw five baby Horned Lizards and an Arizona Black Rattlesnake. Proof that a hike doesn’t need to be epic or lengthy to be incredibly enjoyable. A good reminder. - @desertsirena .

Bear Creek Falls just south of Ouray, Colorado for this #WaterfallWednesday. This 200-foot waterfall is just off the Million Dollar Highway and flows into the Uncompaghre Gorge. It has a great viewing platform to watch and listen to the water. . . 📍Ancestral land of the Ute Tribe
