Stunned by Southern Arizona’s beauty

Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is mainly covered in Saguaro cactuses, the typical shape we know from western movies and cartoons. We climbed up a canyon in the eastern end of the park, the view was amazing, over the park and Mexico. The park is sharing 30 miles of border with the country, resulting in a lot of illegal roads built and used by drug cartels and illegal immigrants. The park rangers multi-task and fight these illegal activities, one of them sadly got killed by a drug cartel member. The border patrol is driving around continuously around the park and all alongside the border.
