Photos from the Belmont Area Trails.

Located several miles north of the El Camino del Cerro trailhead on the east side of the Tucson Mountains the small trail system makes loops thru the desert among cholla, creosote, pack rat nests, tarantula holes and Saguaros.

It is, of course, desperately hot this time of year so we have mostly arrived not-too-long before sunset and looped back in the dark.
