Description

Taken in November 2002, handheld with my first digital camera, a Canon G2, this 360 degree view shows the southernmost extent of Phoenix to the north and to the south, the Gila River Indian Community. The Phoenix community of Ahwatukee Foothills fills in the space between Pecos Road and South Mountain Park. Nicknamed "The Worlds Largest Cul-de-Sac," this suburban community is home for over 85,000 people who have moved in here since the 70s.

To the west is the Sierra Estrella Wilderness, Bureau of Land Management protected land, with several peaks around 4000 feet, that sometimes get a dusting of snow in the winter. Today it was cool and windy with several dusty patches sending dust in the air and one massive dust devil, several miles away.
