Saguaro Skeleton Cross Section 20071215

(Carnegiea gigantea)

During a hike in the desert, I found the remains of what looks like a saguaro cactus cut down a long time ago.
This is now a protected species, but it was interesting to see the inside structure like this.

Photographed in the Sonoran Desert west of Tucson, Arizona USA.
