From there, we take to the skies in the state-of-the-art Robinson R44, Raven II helicopter! Here, you’ll have a chance to see the mountainous landscape in a whole new light. Behold as the sun sets over the Sonoran Desert, which boasts some of the most spectacular views in the world. You may also be able to spot some desert flora and fauna, including saguaro cacti, desert deer, javelinas, ocotillos, and mesquite trees.
