Journey from the Phoenix area through the breathtaking landscapes of Arizona’s Sonoran Desert, where towering saguaro cacti dominate the scenery. As you travel north, the landscape transforms dramatically, climbing into higher elevations where desert vistas give way to vast ponderosa pine forests and cooler mountain scenery.
