This AZ Art consists of 71 Unknown Caches in the desert. The puzzles are all simple ADD / SUBTRACT math to get the final coordinates. If you stay on the old paved / dirt roads you will not encounter the STEEL SPIKES that were likely used for surveying. These steel spikes could cause SEVERE TIRE DAMAGE. As usual be vigilant of all the usual desert hazards. There are not many cacti in this area.

Fun Fact: Africanized bees display certain behavioral traits that make them less than desirable for commercial beekeeping, excessive defensiveness and swarming foremost, they have now become the dominant type of honey bee for beekeeping in Central and South America due to their genetic dominance as well as ability to out-compete their European counterpart, with clear evidence that they are superior honey producers and pollinators.
.
The major differences between Africanized and other Western bee types are: .
Tends to swarm more frequently and go farther than other types of honey bees. .
Is more likely to migrate as part of a seasonal response to lowered food supply. .
Is more likely to "abscond"—the entire colony leaves the hive and relocates—in response to stress. .
Has greater defensiveness when in a resting swarm, compared to other honey bee types..
Lives more often in ground cavities than the European types. .
Guards the hive aggressively, with a larger alarm zone around the hive. .
Has a higher proportion of "guard" bees within the hive. .
Deploys in greater numbers for defense and pursues perceived threats over much longer distances from the hive. .
Cannot survive extended periods of forage deprivation, preventing introduction into areas with harsh winters or extremely dry late summers. .
Has a more dominant strain than the European bee. .
Inter-breeding usually results in an Africanized bee.
