Arboretum at Flagstaff
The Arboretum at Flagstaff (the Arb) is focused on conservation, research, and education. But it is also a great place for regular people like me to enjoy the native plants of the region. The docent who led our tour provided a wealth of information (if you don't know the word docent, you can look it up like we did).
Other photo galleries from this trip included the Phoenix Zoo, Joshua Tree National Park (California), an Arizona segment of historic Route 66, Walnut Canyon National Monument, Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, Wupatki National Monument, Oak Creek Canyon, Sedona to Phoenix, and Watson Lake.
