Sometimes we make the choice to take the road less traveled.
It often broadens our horizons and stretches out our comfort zone, but it’s nearly always the right choice nonetheless. In this month’s issue, we explore our ‘outdoorsiest’ travel options. Whether soaring above the Sonoran Desert in a hot air balloon, squeezing into a tiny house to appreciate our natural surroundings, braving land and lake, or forging our own adventures, Arizona is brimming with wild spaces to discover.
On page 22, you’ll read our 9 point assertion that hot air ballooning should make it on everyone’s bucket list. We sent our travel writer out on assignment to Cottonwood, Arizona to give you a feel for the sensory amplification that occurs by dialing down the size of your living space and stepping out into nature. That article starts on page 30.
We highlight an exciting way to hit the trails of Sedona with Pink Jeep Adventure Tours on page 65. And on page 72, we tell the tale of spending a stormy day on Watson Lake, Prescott’s other-worldly oasis.
Finally, don’t miss our musings on ways to appreciate the night sky, or our Guide to the Best Campgrounds in Arizona. However you decide to ‘see’ this gorgeous state, be sure to look from all angles, and consider alternate vantage points, and potentially less populated routes.
