I was driving around on the plateau last week. I was mostly disoriented. When I entered this little valley (pictured above) it reminded me of South Dakota (pictured below). Which was really disorienting because when I'd started the drive, I was in Arizona. Anyway, while Arizona is plainly a long way from South Dakota, there are some strong similarities between the Kaibab and the Black Hills. They both grow ponderosa pine in great quantities. And aspen, too. Their spruces, on the other hand, are different colors—mostly blue on the Kaibab and white in the Hills.
