Sacaton Mts., Arizona
As a small range located mainly on the Gila River Indian Reservation, the
Sacaton Mts. don't get much attention from photographers. However, parts
of the Sacatons are not only quite beautiful but also refreshingly devoid
of buildings, roads and trails, making this rugged patch of Sonoran Desert a
worthwhile place to explore. During the state-wide "superbloom" in the spring
of 2023 the Sacatons became covered in all types of wildflowers including
as many lupines as I have ever seen anywhere in Arizona at any time.
