PRESCOTT - A COOLER HISTORIC ARIZONA - Palace Saloon
My late Uncle Rolf had a dream to move from Phoenix to Prescott, Arizona. He liked to tell me about the cooler climate and how his children and family be more likely to move from Michigan to Prescott because its four season climate was somewhat similar to Michigan (without the humidity). Unfortunately that dream never came to fruitions as he passed away in the mean time. Given those circumstances Barbara and I just had to go to Prescott and check it out. Join as as we make our very first visit to Prescott, Arizona.
Prescott is a city in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States. According to the 2010 Census, the population of the city is 39,843. The city is the county seat of Yavapai County.[8] In 1864 Prescott was designated as the capital of the Arizona Territory, replacing the temporary capital at Fort Whipple.[9] The Territorial Capital was moved to Tucson in 1867. Prescott again became the Territorial Capital in 1877, until Phoenix became the capital in 1889.
The towns of Prescott Valley, 7 miles (11 km) east; Chino Valley, 16 miles (26 km) north; Dewey-Humboldt, 13 miles (21 km) east, and Prescott, together comprise what is locally known as the Quad-City area.[10] This also sometimes refers to central Yavapai County in general, which would include the towns of: Mayer, Paulden, Wilhoit, and Williamson Valley. Combined with these smaller communities the area had a population of 103,260 as of 2007. Prescott is the center of the Prescott Metropolitan Area, defined by the U.S. Census Bureau as all of Yavapai County.
The Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe reservation is located adjacent to and partially within the borders of Prescott.
Prescott is in the Granite Creek watershed and contains the convergence of Miller Creek and Granite Creek on its north side.[11]
Prescott is 55 mi (89 km) west-northwest of the State of Arizona's geographic center.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 41.5 sq mi (107.5 km2), of which 40.7 sq mi (105.4 km2) is land and 0.81 sq mi (2.1 km2) is water.
Prescott is considered part of North Central Arizona. It is just south of the Granite Dells. The Granite Dells area, or often called ‘The Dells’, is known for its large boulder outcroppings of granite that have eroded into a spectacular appearance of bumpy rock features. Within 'The Dells[17]' are Watson and Willow Lakes, which are two small, man-made reservoirs. Here a number of hiking trails connect to the Peavine Trail.[18] The Peavine National Recreation Trail follows what was the former rail bed of the Santa Fe. This railroad traveled from Prescott to Phoenix through the Granite Dells. The “Peavine” got its name from the winding portion of this railroad that twists and curves, resembling the vine on which peas grow. The Peavine trail connects to the Iron King Trail, which was the route of the old Prescott Railroad through the Granite Dells. Natural lakes include Lynx, Granite Basin and Goldwater, all surrounding different areas of this rustic community. Goldwater Lake,[19] by Goldwater Park, is 4 miles (6.4 km) from downtown Prescott, has 15 acres (6.1 ha) of water surface, and is a popular destination for park recreation and picnic facilities. Lynx Lake[20] is another lake close to Prescott in tall ponderosa pines, and gets some 125,000 visitors every year. This 55-acre (22 ha) lake offers visitors recreational activities, boating, camping, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, picnicking and a small, seasonal restaurant with a view of the lake. Finally, there is the smallest of the natural lakes with 5 acres (2.0 ha) of surface water at Granite Basin[21] Lake. None of these lakes permits swimming, however all are popular recreational destinations near Prescott.
Granite Creek flows generally north from the Bradshaw Mountains through the city, the Granite Dells, and the Little Chino Valley to the Verde River.
Climate
Prescott is in the Bradshaw Mountains of central Arizona, at an elevation of 5,400 feet (1,600 m). The city has a Mediterranean climate (Köppen Csa); however, unlike most other locations in this climate class, there is a pronounced summer wet season due to the North American Monsoon.
Average annual precipitation for 1981–2010 was 17.75 inches (451 mm), with spring and early summer the driest times of the year.[22][23] Snowfall is typically light and snow cover usually melts away quickly; the 1981–2011 average seasonal total was 12.8 inches (33 cm).The largest portion of precipitation falls during the July–September monsoon season. Average daytime temperatures remain above 50 °F (10 °C) the entire year, but diurnal temperature variation is large throughout the year, averaging nearly 30 °F (17 °C) annually.[22][23] On average, temperatures reach 90 °F (32 °C) on 36 days annually, though 100 °F (38 °C)
There was a severe drought from 1999 to 2009, seen from the lack of snowpack in the Bradshaw Mountains.
Fire Destroys Historic Birdcage Saloon on Prescott's Whiskey Row.
Rescued footage of the fire, from my old smart phone. Sorry there is no sound, the footage speaks for itself. This saloon was over 100 yrs old. It was sad to see it go. Watch until the end you will see the carnage for yourself.
AZ 89, Historic US 89 North - The 'National Park Highway' - Yarnell to Prescott
One of the original routes signed in 1926, US 89 ran from the US-Mexico border at Nogales north to Tucson, where it met US 80 near downtown Tucson and continued north through Florence to Florence Junction, where both routes turned west to head into Phoenix. Just west of downtown Phoenix, US 80 continued west on Van Buren St while US 89 curved northwest onto Grand Ave towards Wickenburg. Just past Wickenburg, US 89 went directly north towards the town of Congress. Now running northeast, it began it's multiple-switchback ascent up Yarnell Hill into the town of Yarnell. In Yarnell the road straighten out with gentle, sweeping curves and climbs until Wilhoit, where it began it's ascent up the Bradshaw Mountains to reach the territorial capital of Arizona: Prescott.
1932 saw the addition of US 60 to Arizona, which was co-routed with then-US 180 to Florence Junction. This continued to be US 180's western terminus, while US 60 continued in Phoenix with US 80 and 89. US 70 was later extended in 1934, completely co-routed with US 60 through Phoenix. US 180 was later deleted in 1935 due to redundancy.
In 1946, Arizona routed SR 93 from Kingman to Nogales, creating a new state highway between US 66 in Kingman and US 89 north of Wickenburg, but overlapping US 89 into Phoenix and Tempe, where it was moved to SR 87 to reach Casa Grande and Picacho, before joining SR 84 to Tucson, and US 89 once again to Nogales. This was part of a push to extend US 93, which ended in Kingman, to the international border for trade reasons. (Ironically, I-11 will eventually complete this push by replacing US 93 for the same reason.) After much work building the highway from Kingman to Wickenburg, that was the only portion accepted for US 93's southern extension. The remaining portions that were all overlaps remained SR 93 until finally being dropped from the state highway system in 1984.
US 89's truncation is actually a later one compared to some US highways, having only been truncated in 1992. Prior to that, it ran concurrently with it's replacements: I-19 from Nogales to Tucson, then I-10 within Tucson where it jumped off at Miracle Mile to head east then north on Oracle Road. In Oracle Junction, it met SR 77 and continued north to Florence and Florence Junction, where it continued to co-route with US 60 into Phoenix. (US 70 was truncated to Globe in 1969, US 80 to Benson in 1979.) Both routes continued to take US 60's street alignment via Apache Trail, Main St, Apache Blvd, Mill Ave, Van Buren and Grand Ave.
From there, they split in Wickenburg, with US 60 heading due west to Los Angeles and US 89 continuing north to Prescott. US 89 continued directly north into Congress from it's junction with US 93 north of Wickenburg. After heading northeast to reach Prescott - where it met SR 69, US 89A branched off to take traffic on a more direct eastward diagonal route to Flagstaff. This was originally SR 79, but was redesignated after construction and paving to US 89A in 1941. Mainline US 89 continued north to meet I-40 (US 66 prior to the 1960s), where it co-routed into Flagstaff, leaving I-40 at exit 201. (Prior to 1968, it followed US 66 along modern I-40 Business where the two routes departed on the eastern edge of town.) US 89 then continued north into Utah
With the completion of the Superstition Freeway in 1992, Arizona opted to truncate US 89 back to Flagstaff so US 60 could occupy the freeway from Phoenix to Apache Junction by itself. This left I-40 alone from Ash Fork to Flagstaff, and orphaned two major roads in the state. Between the US 93 junction north of Wickenburg and Ash Fork - the largest and most important orphan - US 89 became SR 89. This makes Routes 89 and 89A the only highways in Arizona to have two segments, unconnected, that share a number but not a shield.
The stub from the US 93/US 89 interchange to US 60 in Wickenburg became US 93, and US 60 got Grand Ave to itself. The large segment from Florence Junction to Oracle received the recycled SR 79 designation US 89A used to use, while SR 77 was extended to meet I-10 in Tucson. A year later, in 1993, US 89A from Flagstaff to Prescott became SR 89A.
I question this decision. Arizona could've run US 89 through Flagstaff on I-40 Bus (as all business loops in Arizona are state owned), replaced this segment of US 89A with US 89, and had US 89 end at US 93 north of Wickenburg.

Prescott, Arizona Day Trip ♥
My boyfriend Brandon and I took a day trip up to Downtown Prescott in Arizona last week! we had a bunch of fun and I decided to make a quick video of the different things we did there. Below are a list of the places (and a short description of each) we went to and the order they appear in the video. I hope you guys like it! Don't hesitate to give me some feedback!
1. Bill's Pizza
- Cute little pizza shop that me and my family always visit when we go up there.
2. Elk's Theatre & Performing Arts Center
- A theatre that was built in 1904. It was an opera house, a movie theatre, and it has been completely restored to its original state and they still host shows! Completely free to visit, it was super cool and interesting! (It's also haunted)
3. Armadilla Wax Works Inc
- Brandon and I had a lot of fun here! You can hand dip different kinds of candles for super cheap! I think it would be really fun to bring my little sister here.
4. Cortez Street Emporium
- Basically an antique mall. Brandon got some really cool vintage zippo lighters and I found an adorable vintage Kewpie Doll! I didn't buy it though. I'm emo now.
5. Frozen Frannie's
- We ran in here to grab something to drink and we discovered the cutest little frozen yogurt shop! I loved the interior design of the place. They had a bunch of vintage car and train memorabilia, including a toy train that went all around the shop!
6. Ian Russell Gallery of Fine Art
- I'm an art freak, so needless to say, when I went into this place I had a full on Fan-girl moment. The clip shown in the video is the Geoffrey Gersten Collection, which is extremely Mark Ryden inspired (I obviously had to buy a print).
7. Yavapai County Courthouse Square
- Pretty self explanatory. It is a park that surrounds a historic courthouse. Brandon and I took a stroll before heading back down to the valley.
