Catalina Clouds

Took a drive up Mount Lemmon-General Hitchcock highway just after a massive rainstorm moved through the area on Monday.  Seven Cataracts falls were flowing strong, and the cliffs above were cloaked with gray mist.

Once over the top and on Oracle Control Road, there were fluffy layers of clouds flowing through the canyons, and filling the San Pedro River valley.

Looking east across the San Pedro River valley from an elevation of roughly 6300'.
The distant Galiuro Mountains are visible in the photo along the horizon to the left.
The even more distant Pinaleno Mountains are also visible, just right of center.
