The Essential Phoenix+Scottsdale Happy New Year! Celebrate 2017 with five hiking destinations that guarantee that your resolution to get (or stay) in shape starts off on the right foot (pg. 32). Also, January’s collector car auctions (pg. 30) and satisfying steakhouses (pg. 34). 9 0 M I N U T E S AT Though it would be easy to spend hours wandering around this 140-acre botanical garden with its 55,000-plus plants, if you have limited time it’s still worth stopping by for a visit. Make sure to head to the new Sam and Betty Kitchell Heritage Garden, where large Mexican blue palms and more fill the space, as well as majestic towering Cardon cacti (some of the first plants to be planted at the Garden
Desert Botanical Garden in 1939!). The Founders Wall— located in the center of the space and comprised of glass circles—is a favorite as a backdrop for photos, while the serene Fine Family Contemplation Garden provides a quiet refuge to pause for reflection. Then, take a quick walk around the Desert Discovery Loop Trail, veering off to explore other trails as time allows. www.dbg.org

Bird. www.goodingco.com AUCTION IN THE ROUND After 16 years, the locally owned and operated Russo and Steele Collector Automobile Auctions is moving from its signature locale in the white tents in North Scottsdale to Salt River Fields at Talking Stick for its Jan. 18-22 event.

round formula,” more than 800 cars—mostly European sports cars, American muscle cars, hot rods and customs— are auctioned. www.russoand steele.com RARE SHOWCASE Three panel discussions kick off the Arizona Concours d’Elegance on Jan. 14 at the historic Arizona Biltmore.

WHERE NOW Phoenix+Scottsdale OUT+ABOUT
New On The Scene Expand your shopping horizons and stop by three stores new to the local scene. E-commerce-driven menswear brand Bonobos (www.bonobos.com) opened a “guideshop” at Scottsdale Quarter. The locale is a place where customers can see and try on clothing before placing an online order. Similar to a personal shopper, guides help find the best fits and styles, and then the items are shipped free of charge. Local Nomad (www.local nomadshop.com) at Phoenix’s Uptown Plaza offers a carefully curated selection of gifts, clothing and accessories made with an emphasis on sustainable materials and manufacturing practices. The items range from locally created products to handcrafted pieces from around the world. Find everything from handmade brass wall hangings and jewelry to hand-knitted baby rattles. American lifestyle brand J.McLaughlin (www.jmclaughlin.com) opened its first Arizona location at Scottsdale’s Kierland Commons, offering women’s and men’s clothing. The styles are classic, with a current relevance. The new store marks the 111th location for the company.
Perfect Pic Picks What would a visit to the Valley be without photos to preserve your memories? Perfect snap-worthy spots Scottsdale’s Civic Center Park. Stand by it, sit near it, pose with it. A drive down Shea Boulevard towards Fountain Hills takes you past an overlook off to your right just west of Palisades Boulevard. Pull into the parking lot and take in the view—you can see all the way to downtown Phoenix. In Fountain Hills, the famous fountain in Fountain Park (which typically shoots 330 feet in the air) is also a wonderful setting for photos. Head to Tempe Town Lake for a great backdrop, whether during the day or when the bridge’s lights can be seen after the sun sets. And of course, climb to the top of any mountain (Camelback and Piestewa Peak are favorites) and be rewarded with stunning scenery perfect for a photo opportunity.
“The ‘LOVE’ sculpture is the culmination of 10 years of work based on the original premise that the word is an appropriated and usable element of art...” —Robert Indiana Robert Indiana’s “LOVE” sculpture is located in Scottsdale’s Civic Center Park. 32 W H E R E P H O E N I X + S COT T S D A L E I J A N UA R Y 2017
Heart-healthy Hikes Those looking for motivation to honor their New Year’s resolution to get in shape are motivated by the area’s numerous hiking spots. Five favorite destinations include Camelback Mountain, which offers two trails to choose from (Cholla Trail and Echo Canyon Trail), both of which are challenging. Hikers also pick from various trails on Piestewa Peak, with the very strenuous Summit Trail being the most popular. At Pinnacle Peak, the route is more moderate, which makes it a favorite with beginner hikers and families. Tom’s Thumb in Scottsdale’s McDowell Sonoran Preserve treats hikers to the iconic Tom’s Thumb rock formation, along with small alcoves and caves to explore. And climb South Mountain’s Holbert Trail to reach Dobbins Lookout, the mountain’s highest accessible viewpoint. It’s a challenging hike that rewards climbers with one of the best views of downtown Phoenix.

Steakhouses to Savor Each evening, grills fire up, servers pop the corks of fine wines and chefs sharpen their knives for another round of suburb suppers in the Valley. Now and then, a perfectly seasoned, flame-grilled prime cut of meat is all that will please the palate. Destinations like The Stockyards—founded in 1947—and family-owned Rustler’s Rooste Steakhouse keep to Western traditions and serve up hearty steaks inside digs with plenty of character, while juicy steaks and chops are served poolside on the rooftop at Dominick’s Steakhouse and in front of a stunning sunset view at J&G Steakhouse.

[WHERE INSIDE]
Valley of the Sun Your Way
Museum Goers
Patio Diners
Nightlife Lovers
From art to musical instruments to autos and more, there are so many museums to explore in the Valley. At the world’s only global musical instrument museum, the (1) Musical Instrument Museum, listen to an impressive number of instruments from around the world and enjoy an array of hands-on exhibits. Race over to (2) Penske Racing Museum to view a selection of race cars, trophies and racing memorabilia from Penske Racing, including a selection of Indianapolis 500 race-winning cars. At (3) Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA), Arizona’s only permanent museum dedicated solely to modern works of art, find the crowd favorite “Knight Rise” skyscape by artist James Turrell (pictured) located in the outdoor courtyard.
While other states may be blanketed with snow in January, in the Valley of the Sun, it’s usually perfect patio weather. Pull up a chair at (1) AZ/88, a modern restaurant with award-winning cocktails and a nice selection of salads, sandwiches, burgers and entrées. The patio overlooks Scottsdale’s Civic Center Park. The stunning patio at (2) Lon’s at The Hermosa offers a perfect fine dining retreat. It’s intimate yet spacious, and is the ultimate backdrop for the cutting-edge menu options. Cozy up on the 1,400-square-foot patio at (3) Old Town Tortilla Factory, a restaurant built from a historic 75-year-old adobe home. Choose a dish from a menu featuring Southwestern options with a Mexican twist, while surrounded by green vegetation and shaded by 100-year-old pecan trees.
When the clock strikes 10, the Valley doesn’t sleep. Instead, tables and chairs are pulled away to make room for bands and dance floors. In downtown Scottsdale, 21-and-older crowds bar hop the nightlife district. On Saddlebag Trail, (1) El Hefe is a good place to start. Order a margarita inside this vibrantly decorated Mexican restaurant and mingle with fellow bar-goers as the evening begins to take shape. Then head across the street to (2) Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row for some live country music and dancing. Around the corner on Indian Plaza, (3) Bottled Blonde is a top destination for dancing, so step in line early to dance the night away. Evening Entertainment Group owns Bottled Blonde and a lineup of other popular nightclubs that help keep the party going into the wee hours.
