McDowell Gateway Nature Hike | Hiking in the desert

New years day 2021 we decided to go out and see some nature since we were kind of getting cabin fever. We were sure glad we did. We learned a bunch about the area historically. The desert hasn't always been the desert but then again, we'd be naive if we thought that.

We are still blown away by the amount of people out daily to do hiking or biking, mountain biking, camping, UTVing, boating, etc... People in Arizona certainly take advantage of the beautiful weather during fall winter and early spring. I suppose it will get hot and the lakes will fill up more soon. Too soon!
