Chain Fruit Cholla - Marcus Landslide Trail - McDowell Sonoran Preserve This is a chain fruit cholla on the Marcus Landslide Trail.  It grows very thick. 

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindropuntia_fulgida" rel="noreferrer nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindropuntia_fulgida</a>
Cylindropuntia fulgida grows at elevations ranging from 300 to 1,000 m (980 to 3,280 feet). While the name "jumping cholla" is applied especially to this species, it is also used as a general term for all chollas.
The jumping cholla is an arborescent (tree-like) plant with one low-branching trunk. It often grows to heights of 4 m (13 feet), with drooping branches of chained fruit. The stems are light green and are strongly tuberculate, with tubercles (small, wart-like projections on the stems) measuring 6 to 9 millimetres (1⁄4 to 1⁄3 in). Together, the plants form forests that may range over many hectares.
The "jumping cholla" name comes from the ease with which the stems detach when brushed. Another more sparingly used name is monkey cups, due to the nature of the plant's structure. Often the merest touch will leave a person with bits of cactus hanging on their clothes to be discovered later when either sitting or leaning on them. The ground around a mature plant will often be covered with dead stems, and young plants are started from stems that have fallen from the adult. They attach themselves to desert animals and are dispersed for short distances. Extinct, hairy megafauna may have played a role in their historic, more widespread dispersal in this manner.
Other names for this cactus include chain fruit cholla, cholla brincadora, and velas de coyote.

The "McDowell Sonoran Preserve" is a joint effort of the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy and the City of Scottsdale to preserve the McDowell Mountains as undeveloped.
