Arizona's residents thirst is quenched by hundreds of miles of water canals, primarily filled by the Colorado River.

The Agua Fria (Cold Water in Spanish) River is a 120-mile-long tributary of the Gila River in central Arizona. The headwaters of the river are at Glassford Hill near Prescott in Yavapai County. The river flows through the desert landscape of Agua Fria National Monument and ends at Lake Pleasant north of Phoenix. The river has been a vital water source for thousands of years as well as having significant cultural and historical importance. Indigenous people such as the Hohokam inhabited this region, utilizing the river’s resources for agriculture, hunting, and gathering. Agua Fria National Monument encompasses 71,100 acres of the Sonoran Desert in central Arizona. President Bill Clinton established the national monument in 2000 to protect the cultural and natural resources of the region. The monument is managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and is characterized by its rich cultural heritage and diverse ecosystems. It contains numerous archaeological sites, petroglyphs, and remnants of ancient pueblos, representing thousands of years of Native American history. This picture of the Agua Fria River was photographed in the Agua Fria National Monument near Cordes Lake, Arizona, USA.

The Fremont’s Cottonwood (Populus fremontii) is a poplar tree native to the American Southwest and south through central Mexico. The tree was named after John C. Fremont, the 19th century American explorer. The riparian tree grows near streams, rivers, springs and wetlands below 6,600 ft elevation. This scene of a Fremont Cottonwood was photographed along the Aqua Fria River in the Agua Fria National Monument near Cordes Lake, Arizona, USA.

Acequias are a communal system of irrigating fields in a very dry land. They are vital to the survival of agriculture in many countries. These irrigation systems evolved over centuries in order to allocate a fair share of water for the local people. The source for this water comes from the Sangre de Cristo mountains in the background.
