Description
Arroyos or desert washes are dry creeks, streams, and gulches that only fill up and flow after substantial rain or flooding. Therefore they make ideal places to hike and explore because of an abundance of flora growing in and around them making such areas like extended desert oases with plenty of nice shade. A common site, especially after monsoon flooding, is exposed roots extending out the side of the banks from the trees growing on top. This is one of three photos recently taken in August of 2019 in the Sonoran Desert about 50 miles south of Phoenix, Arizona, USA. The Palo Verde tree is the Arizona state tree. Palo verde means green wood in Spanish, and the wood is really green, but not the roots!
