BajaArizona

BajaArizona, salt river/Gila/Agua Fria bioregion, tracing water from white mountains black river, through the black Canyon white river, forming the Salt/Gila/Agua Fria watershed.

walking howling Arizona grey wolf walking persons, elk eating grass running people, riparian willow and flowering people, always the land, our earth singing us in this way. Drinking snow melt and lightning rain, hail and obsidian, creosote and prickly pear, cholla and mesquite standing, swaying in the wind people.
