Making my winter trip plans, looking at a week in the area of Organ Pipe Cactus. Anyone have any experience there? Any other places of interest nearby?

I have seen the warnings about dispersed camping solo and to stay in groups.

We visited Saguaro National Park last May, about 120 miles from Organ Pipe. We did some day hikes there but did not camp. It's a nice area and we enjoyed it. We also visited the Desert Botanical Garden near Phoenix, which was nice and recommended. I don't know about the winter, though. I don't think any of the plants will be in bloom.
