Artist's Description
On February 22, 2019, snow fell for the first time in the Tucson metro since I had lived there. I rare sight indeed, I headed to the Finger Rock Trailhead at the end of North Avernon Way in the Catalina Foothills to capture the event. While the snow had already melted in the foothills, it was still snowing lightly and the towering picks of the Santa Catalina Mountains, including Mount Kimball and Finger Rock, were covered in snow. I hiked down to this area featuring a dry wash or creek bed that was flowing with some water from the snow melt and captured it receding back to the snowy peaks. The lush green brittle brush and distant saguaro cacti for a wonderful contrast to the snow capped Santa Catalina Mountains. This spectacular scene in the Sonoran Desert combines winter with spring and is a rare sight to see. It is one of my personal favorites.

Joe Schofield
Wonderful POV, Chance. A long ascent ahead. It that Mt. Lemon? l/f
Chance Kafka replied:
Thanks for the comment Joe! It is a flank of Mount Kimball, which sits along the southern face of the Catalina Mountains - Mount Lemmon is above and behind these peaks but locals commonly refer to the entire range as Mount Lemmon even if that's not technically correct. So technically no, but depends on who you ask!
