Backpacking Bell Crossing

Hedgehog cacti usually look sort of drab, but when spring comes, they amaze me with their beautiful blooms.

The Bell Trail was once used by ranchers to move their cattle from the Mogollian Rim to Verde Valley. Now, it leads to some awesome swimming holes.

Doesn't this look inviting? Tahoe and I had to go for a swim.

There were so many butterflies.
