Hikers till get lost in the Superstitions and occasionally need to be rescued, if they are lucky.
I love the layered look of the landscape. Thanks for the link.
The mountains are fantastic and the legends are so very interesting. Don't worry about the power lines, I have the same problem with tram cables in Lisbon... :-)
Great shot. Thanks for the link.
My daughter is fascinated by the story of The Lost Dutchman. Such a great shot! Nice skills you have there.
We weren't all that far from the Superstitions when we lived in Scottsdale...we always enjoyed the snow on their peaks during the winter.
There used to be a guy in an old wagon near the road where you turned to drive into the mountains...I wonder if that is still there...
No need to apologize for power lines. They are ubiquitous.
I would know this shape without a title. This is a great long lens shot! You can even see Weavers Needle! The white clouds seem to be sitting on the top of the mountain. I'm so glad you have shown this most famous of mountains in the valley.
Magnificent! Thanks for the link.
Nice shot - I like the clouds floating by in the foreground! I am off to read your link!
Great hiking trails there!
