    Its called a century plant and yes it puts all its energy into the production the stem that produces seeds and dies off. I live here in Arizona!!!

    Hey Justin, local AZ resident checking in here. Couple of things you brought up in the video-1) if I remember correctly, you came through here in the winter, right? The snakes tend to be in hibernation in the winter and when temperatures are getting down to freezing or below. Come spring or late winter when the weather warms up, they'll start coming out and will be around until late fall. 2) Regarding your overnight low temperature being much lower than the forecast, that will tend to happen if you are camping in or near the washes and low ground. The temperature inversions there can be significantly colder than the nearby higher ground, and you can feel it in the day time as well-which I think you recognized when you were talking about your site choice for the second night's camp.

    For desert hiking I usually carry a hydration bladder 3L (it can be filled through the hose so no need to take out of the backpack) and a 3L BeeFree bag or what ever it’s called. So basically I can filter the water into the hydration bladder and carry extra dirty water if needed at camp for example.

    Once again you succeed in giving us the beauty of the desert atmosphere. What a perfect time to be there.

    This brings me back! I grew up in Southern California and used to camp in the low desert. Now, I’m not far from the Canadian border.

    Great new adventure Justin! The desert of Arizona is on my list now, would love to do a solo hiking vid there one day. -10 is a huge temperature drop, but you are a true survivor ;) Thank you very much for sharing and inspiring me, I really like your authenticity and positivity. Stay safe out there. Best wishes, Mario

    Now you are in my next of the woods. I totally do the hoodie and pants. Shorts in the desert will mess you up quickly.

    Nice! I did a three-day hike through the Superstition Mountains in 2019 and this brought back a lot of memories. Rule of thumb: Don’t touch ANYTHING! Everything has spikes. I accidentally brushed up against a cactus pitching my tent and still had dozens of microscopic spikes embedded in me for weeks later lol

    Plant fact is true (Although I am not sure on the species). “Poisonous” snakes, spiders and scorpions is untrue. Venomous is the correct term. Great video! Cheers!

    I love desert hiking. It's a huge difference from the hiking I'm used to as well (mid-Atlantic region of US), but I just love how dramatic the scenery is and how interesting the flora and fauna are. If you go back to Arizona, climb the Flatiron!

    I love the Arizona desert!

    I've done 2 hikes in the Weaver's Needle area. One like this video, and one a bit North of there. April is a good month for that area.

    I love hiking desert . We live in the desert. Snakes and scorpions sleep in heat and hunt at night- cooler . They all attack only if threatened. - if you get close.

    That’s a yucca. We used to take the dead stocks and make didgeridoos from them by scraping out the soft interior and wrapping them with string and the seal it with bees wax

    In my backyard. I've hiked all of those areas. There are a surprising number of springs... As you found.

    Desert temp swings are crazy! What a beautiful area! Seems like maybe you got a new action came (insta360?) and a gimbal. Loving the shots you're capturing and the way you put the video together! Awesome adventure!
