Palm Canyon, Kofa N.W.R. — photo spot in 11686 S Hunter Ave, Yuma, AZ 85367, USA
Palm Canyon, Kofa N.W.R.
A rare desert palm oasis carved into rugged granite walls—great for contrasting green California fan palms against red-rock cliffs and open desert. Best photographed at golden hour (sunrise or late afternoon) for warm side-light and long shadows. Access requires a moderate hike on unpaved, rocky trails; carry water, sun protection and sturdy shoes. No entrance fee but check Kofa NWR alerts before visiting; parking is limited at the trailhead, and temperatures are extreme in summer so plan winter
