Descending Interstate 17 from Camp Verde toward Phoenix, the flora changes dramaticly.
Catclaw dominates in the Camp Verde area. And though the varieties are interesting, they ALL have "wait-a-bit" thorns that makes cross-country travel impossible without a machete.
Further south beavertail cactus and yucca become more common. Interspersed between the larger plants, small barrel cactuses smile up from their family groupings. There're even a few psuedo-trees.
Beavertail....spreadin' out phar & wyd.
