Some green still survives in the fires scorched areas surrounding Sugarloaf Mountain at the Chiricahua National Monument in the aftermath of the Horseshoe 2 Wildfire, Tue. July 26, 2011. Areas of the upper reaches of the monument are untouched, but others are almost completely denuded of vegetation.
