La Paloma, Catalina Foothills, AZ 85718, USA (Google, OSM)

Description

Definitely a heteromyid of some kind. I'm assuming Chaetodipus based on size. Looked like it was maybe ~180mm total length. They are EVERYWHERE but super fast and hard to photograph. They like these rock piles around electrical equipment.
