“Picacho Peak is arguably one of the best spots to see blooming wildflowers and cactus in Arizona…”

If you’ve ever driven I-10 from Phoenix to Tucson (or vice versa), it would be hard not to notice the distinctive shape of Picacho Peak rising from the desert floor.
It’s the center of an Arizona state park and a great spot to see spring wildflowers!
