Camp Verde June 2018
Hi,
This trip we're headed up to Camp Verde in northern Arizona. I get in a quick 7-mile bike ride and we get to spend a little time on “The Lakes” in Tempe AZ before heading out. A couple of hours on the road up I 17 and were the Verde Valley RV and Camping Resort. We had been here before, but it was quite a bit different then, almost a pain because of a lot of construction. Well they’ve completed most of it and the park is beautiful. There is a lot of construction on the road to it through Cottonwood but it’s easily passable.
Jim and I get to hike down by the river and surprise a few peccaries. That was interesting. We visited a very nice winery and get a chance to look at a lot of the local sites. It was a short trip but a lot of fun and very relaxing. Hope you get a kick out of it and enjoy the sites.
See you again soon…

Due to a long history influenced by a booming copper industry, the state of Arizona was nicknamed ‘The Copper State’. Today, it is one of the most popular places to visit in the country with a great selection of natural sites and attractions. The most famous is probably the Grand Canyon National Park. Every year, millions of visitors come to explore the spectacular canyon carved out by the Colorado River. Since 1979, the Grand Canyon has also been a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is one of the oldest national parks of its kind in North America.
Another example of Arizona’s beauty is Sedona National Park, where wind, water and time have formed sandstones that glow in hues of orange and red. Besides the unique stone formations, the national park also has a collection of waterfalls where you can take a cooling swim. Oak Creek Canyon is another popular spot where wide expanses of greenery create a lusher ambience compared to other canyons. Visitors to the parks can also engage in a range of different activities, such as biking, hiking, and horseback riding. The more adventurous can also try rock climbing.
As you can see, Arizona is a true paradise for outdoor lovers. Not only do the many canyons offer exciting hiking and biking trails, but Arizona’s many beautiful rivers and lakes also provide a great venue for water activities. Visitors and locals can enjoy kayaking, fishing, jet skiing and swimming. White water rafting is another option for those looking for a more thrilling adventure.
The city of Tucson could be the perfect location to shoot a Wild West movie. However, you will also find relaxing resorts, golf courses and abundant shopping facilities. The city’s fine culinary scene has earned Tucson the title ‘UNESCO City of Gastronomy’, one of the first of its kind. The city of Cottonwood is another culinary gem where top quality wine making is possible due to the rich soil and favorable climate. Wine tasting among the vineyards is the order of the day in this area of the state. When in Cottonwood, be sure to stop by Oak Creek Vineyard, Javelina Leap Vineyard or Alcantara Vineyard. These family-owned wineries will be happy to serve you.
The city of Phoenix is the largest in the state and an interesting place to visit. Shop at Kierland Commons or Biltmore Fashion Park to get the best deals, while a range of luxury resorts offer the perfect place to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle. OdySea Aquarium is home to sharks, turtles, penguins, jellyfish, octopus and more. Other popular attractions in Phoenix include Frank Lloyd Wright’s winter home and the Musical Instrument Museum.

Arizona’s importance in the copper industry has gained it its nickname “The Copper State”. The state is one of the most exciting to visit in the US, due to its many natural wonders and parks.

Since 1979, the Grand Canyon National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and also one of the oldest national parks in the United States.
Sedona National Park is another great example of Arizona’s splendid parks. Over many millions of years, beautiful sandstone formations were created by wind and water influences in this area. Today, these stones shine in hues of orange and red. Even various Native American tribes, such as the Apaches and Yavapais, considered this land sacred and lived in harmony with nature here. The national park does not only feature exceptional sandstones, but also various tall waterfalls. Visitors like to cool down in the pools of the waterfalls during hikes. If you are looking for a lusher park, visit Oak Creek Canyon.
