Truly The King of Arizona.

Near the small town of Quartzsite, Arizona, lies a little-known wildlife refuged named Kofa (short for King of Arizona). In April 2021 my girlfriend and I set out with loaded backpacks seeking the top of Signal Peak for a night of camping in the backcountry - no small feat given the early evening heat and difficulty of the hike!

But the payoff was absolutely worth it, as can be seen from this photo, which is a blend of a blue hour shot and the Milky Way taken from the same vantage point. An incredible night above distant peaks and under the stars.
