We’ve had frost two mornings in a row and are in for a third. This shot taken at Rock Knob yesterday is not a photo of frost but I thought the backlighting made it kind of look like there is frost. Time of day wasn’t ideal for photography but we had a blast exploring the area.

Rock Knob is a huge pile of boulders with many strewn in the surrounding landscape. It offers spectacular views of the Superstition Mountains, the Four Peaks Wilderness area and the McDowell Mountains.

Four Peaks had had a little snow on them yesterday.
