Ramsey Canyon and Miller Peak

Staying at Beatty’s Ranch 2/3 of the way up Miller Peak, via a twisty, rock-strewn two-track. The ranch is really an orchard, with chickens, in a wide spot in a narrow canyon, graced with streams, and ponds, Arizona sycamores, alligator junipers, and Emery oaks. Unique in all the world. But before arriving here we did a little exploring of beautiful Ramsey Canyon. Here at Beatty’s 21,000 acre wilderness all around us. And, coming up.”, Mimi saw a nice big mountain lion.
