    In Arizona, you can't say its hot till it hits 110 degrees. The day we packed up the moving van and left it was 120 degrees. I do not miss it.

    Saguro Cactus are just one type of Cactus and they grow in the Sonora Desert in Arizona, southeast California and northern Mexico.
    You were in the Chihuahuan Deset in New Mexico, which is more high desert, no Saguaro cactus in New Mexico. A desert is a desert if it receives 0-10” of annual precipitation. You also saw semi desert which is wetter about 10-15” of precipitation.

    Several years ago I was in Minneapolis area delivering to Myers or Meijer distribution center during a heat wave. Those poor people were miserable to say the least. It was in the upper 80's or lower 90's. Me being from Florida thought the weather was great. They were all but dying and had to take breaks every 20 to 30 minutes and were apologizing for taking so long. I just imagined I was there in January or February and minus 20 or so how miserable I would be. I truly felt bad for them and didn't rush them at all. Really nice people but they were out of their element most definitely.

    Saguaro cactus are excusive to the Sonoran desert. Can live to be 200 years old or more. Protected by law.

  • @janetwalz4516
    @janetwalz4516 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Saguaro cactus, I really like em too, I was on a back road in Arizona, goin cross country as you say. The sun was settingn , and I got this amazing shot of a saguaro with the sun as a backdrop almost right behind the cactus, a bit off to the left. For every rm it takes 50 yers, so that one cactus in front of you is probably 100 years.they have weak bases where they are in the sand and they can jusst topple over at anytime.

  • @karenstraw8689
    @karenstraw8689 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    The cactus are protected and you can go to jail for damaging them. They are called saguaro.

    @LouisVanderhaak 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    There are actually cacti in the hills just outside of Williams Lake in British Columbia, Canada. But they’re tiny, only a few inches tall. Nothing like the ones you saw n Arizona. But it’s still pretty cool to know that Canada has cacti as well.

    Saguaro Cactus only in Arizona.

  • @TruckerDan75
    @TruckerDan75 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Because saguaros grow so slowly, it might take 50 to 75 years for them to grow their first arms. Arms are important to them because they store extra water. After 100 years, they usually have several arms. After 200 years they have many arms.

  • @thomascarey2941
    @thomascarey2941 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The Sonoran Desert its the wettest desert in the world. Around Phoenix, the average annual rainfall is 7 inches. Around Tucson, the average rainfall is 17 inches.

    Josh, if I were to guess I would think that the general elevation in New Mexico would inhibit the growth of palm trees.

    They're their own species of cactus, and I'm pretty sure they only grow in Arizona.

  • @BigDaddy_MRI
    @BigDaddy_MRI 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Saguaro is what they are called. The can grow up to 12-13 meters tall. Carnegiea gigantea is the species.
    It is native to the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, the Mexican state of Sonora, and the Whipple Mountains and Imperial County areas of California.
    The saguaro blossom is the state wildflower of Arizona. Its scientific name is given in honor of Andrew Carnegie.

    The area of the Navajo Nation is a very different type of area in Arizona. I live in Southwest Utah, and we have palm trees here, but no Saguaro cactus here. We have three different regions that meet here. The Colorado Plateau, the Basin and Range, and the Mojave Deseret. There are different vegetation that grow in each region. We have Joshua trees here in our area and they are cool to see as well. Moab, Utah is a beautiful area as well. That part of Utah has grown too. To bad you couldn't have come through St. George, Utah, and see my part of the state.

    Those are saguaro (sa-war-o) cactus. It might be hot, but it’s a dry heat! At the end of that statement they usually add a picture of a skeleton! LOL. I was coming south on I-17 one time, the car that passed me had a bumper sticker that said their other car is a dog sled! Not many mushers in AZ.
