Palm Canyon is the product of thousands of years of erosion which still deepen the gorge in this ancient volcanic mountain. A side canyon shows a stunning phenomenon: a bunch of palm trees (about 100) which are the only native palms in Arizona. It is believed that these are the remnants from a period of time when this area was wetter and cooler. To get close to the palms, you will have to do some scrambling.
