Trees in the Chiricahua Mountains
Trees in the Chiricahua Mountains, the rock formations in these mountains are amazing to see, but the trees are what caught my eye as well, as we made our way to Echo Canyon hiking trail.
Here is a link to Pancho Villa State park in Columbus New Mexico, with a bit of a time lapse. I am always a little ahead on these post compared to the video’s I put of these areas on my You Tube channel.
I have always been fascinated with trees and all the different kinds across the country. These here in the mountains of Arizona are quite unique as they grow out from the rocks in many forms. Twisted and curved, they are an artistic display of nature.

Spent several vacations out west taking shots of the solo trees that managed to find a place to root on in the crevasses and lowpoints of the mountains. Was going to create a coffee table book of those shots, but never got around to it. Like you, they always fascinate me with their ability to survive in such unlikely places.
I never think of things like coffee table books. I wonder if people still buy those. Hmm ๐
Beautiful photos, thanks for making my day!

Thank you Sandra. These are great! You have captured the essence of the location. In these trees I see the persistence of life in a stark rugged country. The contrast makes the place naturally beautiful and inviting. What a great place. Blessings to you
Yes, it is amazing how they grow in such a dry desert landscape. Providing food and shelter to so many animals. Thank you very much RJ.
Beautiful photos, Sandra! I love the silhouette tree with the moon in the background.
Thank you Kellye ๐
What beautiful images! These trees look like the pain of living in a hostile environment.
Yes, that is an excellent description. ๐
Fascinating how life can take root almost anywhere… Great photos…
Thanks, Sandra. Have a wonderful day.
You also Francine, thank you ๐
And yet trees still grow (or did grow) in this rather hostile environment.
Yes they still grow and they don’t get much rain either. ๐
I love the pic of the tree with the moon๐๐
