I'm from the Northeast NP. I was in AZ and Utah last month and really loved it. I was wondering if someone could help me in identifying this common bush. I photographed it in Page, AZ. Whether it is tumbleweed I'm not sure.
It's some type of buckwheat (eriogonum). Not sure what the precise sub-species is.

I've been wondering about that plant for years. I call it a Bucky Fuller Bush because it reminds me of a geodesic dome. It is amazingly geometric! Thanks for the clue, Guy. And I LOVE the shot, Scott!
