AROUND RIM COUNTRY Brush pit schedule The Regional Payson Area Project ... for a Firewise Rim Country (RPAP) will once again be staffing free brush drop-off points weather permitting starting the last weekend of July.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
WELLNESS DESTINATIONS
I have been asked to find some top wellness destinations that tend to your body and mind. What makes for a good wellness destination? A poll taken earlier this year says uppermiddle class women between the ages of 30 and 65 determine the top wellness destinations around the world. If you don’t fit the mold it is still interesting to discover where these sanctuaries are. Sedona is one of Arizona’s treasured spots, offering plentiful activities and breathtaking scenery suitable for a wellness vacation. Visitors can dive into KEN BROOKS the Enchantment Resort, which covers 70 acres and rests at the entrance of Boynton Canyon. This is a world-class destination spa resort, Mii amo Spa, and offers various fitness activities in addition to spa services. Some of these can be experienced as a red rock treatment in a private, outdoor Native American-inspired structure that provides views of Red Rock Canyon. Sedona is not only close by, but offers some fine dining. There are all kinds of spas in the Valley and Tucson as well and notable spots in the Santa Fe area of New Mexico. Colorado has
its share of highly regarded spas and a few in Utah that have received kudos. With all the resort casinos in Nevada, there are also plenty of spas to visit in Laughlin and Las Vegas. Stretched out along the Pacific Coast, California is full of possibilities for a wellness vacation. One of California’s gems is Ojai, a city close enough to access Los Angeles by car, but far enough from its traffic and smog. Known for its hiking trails, farmers market and local organic agriculture, Ojai is a model of California charm. Visitors can enjoy sunset views reflected over Southern California’s Topatopa Mountain range during their stay at Ojai Valley Inn & Spa. Guests of the inn can wind down and nourish their bodies at Spa Ojai, which offers seasonal treatments, their signature Kuyam treatment, nourish their bodies with a sauna treatment, along with various massage, facial and scrub options. The Inn also hosts seasonal activities, such as full moon yoga and tomato picking with their chefs. There are also very fine Spas in Bali, Costa Rica, Italy, British Columbia, Australia, New Zealand and of course, Hawaii. In Hawaii on the island of Maui book a room at the swanky Grand Wailea. This resort has an award-winning Spa Grande voted one of the top spas in the U.S. by Conde Nast Traveler. It is the largest health resort in Hawaii, with 50,000 square feet dedicated to relevant activities, including

in the 1950s, Meta Given’s “The Modern Family Cook Book” and “Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking” were popular references for home cooking recipes, thrift, family health information and nutrition. “Meta Given was the “Martha Stewart” of that time.

It is a popular hike becoming a lawman in the Cotton-
wood area. Nearer to Tonto Creek, the trail passes just south of the Anderson Lee “Babe” Haught homestead where Zane Grey had his cabin, and the Tonto Fish Hatchery. The start of the Babe Haught Trail is located at the entrance to Tonto Fish Hatchery. This is the trail that the Haughts took to the top of the Rim on their treks to Winslow. The Highline Trail crosses Dick Williams Creek, a tributary of Tonto Creek, named for a trapper and mountain man who lived in the area in the 1890s. Further east is Horton Spring, which is a popular spot. The hike to Horton Spring is one of the most popular hikes in the state of Arizona. On just about every summer day you’ll find a parking lot full of cars next to the junction of Tonto and Horton Creeks. This is an area with some great history. Camp Geronimo was once located at the junction of Highway 260 and Forest Road 289 (also referred to by many as the Tonto
Fish Hatchery Road) and there was a secondary Boy Scout camp located a little bit up Horton Creek from the bridge. Kohl’s Ranch Lodge is on the other side of Highway 260. But while all of those things are interesting, what draws people is the hike to the spring. This area has occasionally been referred to as Horton Thicket. Here are a couple of clips from Zane Grey’s “Tales of Lonely Trails” about it. “Even in the jungle tropics I had never seen such dense shade as this down in Horton Thicket. The timber grew close and large, and the foliage was matted, letting little sunlight through. Dark, green and brown, fragrant, cool thicket indeed it was… “By and bye we reached the bottom of the thicket where we crossed a swift clear cold brook. Here the smells seemed cool, sweet, wild with spruce and pine. This stream of granite water burst from a spring under a cliff. What a roar it made! I drank until I could drink no more.”

‘Apes’ series entries a mixed bag FROM PAGE 4
is raised by good-hearted humans and then falls into the hands of bad people. The plot elements are re-cycled in part in the much better “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” in 2011. The last gasp of the first series of Ape movies came in 1973 with “Battle of the Planet of the Apes”. It will be entirely understandable if you avoid watching this faint ghost of the brilliant 1968 “Planet of the Apes”. Tim Burton has done some remarkable and admirable work. After a hiatus of almost 30 years he tried his hand with reviving the famous series. Tim Roth as the bad Ape General Thade is worth watching. We also have iconoclastic directorial pyrotech-
nics from Burton. But we also suffer an Ape Abe Lincoln and poor Charlton Heston repeating a line from the first film in a cameo that should have been cut. Hooray, we lived long enough to see a really good “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” in 2011. Andy Serkis, or his voice, appears as Caesar. James Franco plays the scientist who raises the young chimp and forms his character. This is a superior film in every way. Try to catch it on TV while “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” is in the theaters. The studios often try to double up on the release of a new member of the franchise if they can. Or catch “Planet of the Apes” from 1968 on DVD. There are now eight movies in the series and three are well worth watching.
Horton Creek dips underground on its way to meeting Tonto Creek. This is something that an Oct. 10, 1944 Arizona Republic article discussed: “LOST: One creek, a good trout fishing stream. Finder please return to the State of Arizona.” According to the article, Civilian Conservation Corps workers filled in a large crack with cement but the same crack had reopened and was going to be filled in again. Obviously, a permanent fix was never found. East of Horton Spring the Highline Trail crosses Christopher Creek in See Canyon. There is a trail northward from the Highline Trail at Christopher Creek that leads to See Spring. The See family lived in this area at some point prior to 1900. It’s generally been believed that John See and his wife Annie were the ones who lived there. Some variations on the story allege that John killed Annie in this area, though records seem to indicate that the alleged murder occurred in Tonto Basin. South of See Canyon is where Frenchman Isadore Christopher settled, branded CI, and where John Bowman patented 160 acres in 1917. The small unincorporated community of Christopher Creek now resides on that patent. When the Highline Trail ends at the Highway 260 Trailhead, one is just below the Rim Lakes, which are a series of manmade lakes created in the late 1950s and early 1960s. These trail areas are but a mere sampling. Throughout the area is a rich and varied history that is filled with trails that weave through the forest. Each has its own story to tell.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Technology snafus tax your patience. But before you throw that computer or other bulky hardware into the trash, take a deep breath and call someone knowledgeable for help. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Don’t be too upset if your generosity goes unappreciated. These things happen, and rather than brood over it, move on. A new friend could open up some exciting new possibilities. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A loved one helps you get through an especially difficult emotional situation. Spend the weekend immersed in the body and soul restorative powers of music and the other arts. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You are pretty much in charge of what you want to do this week. However, it might be a good idea to keep an open mind regarding suggestions from people you know you can trust. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Another chance to shine (something always dear to the Lion’s heart) might be resented by others. But you earned it, so enjoy it. The weekend brings news about a family member. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) A suggestion that never took off could become viable again. Dust it off, update it if necessary, and resubmit it. In your personal life, a new relationship takes an “interesting” turn. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Confronting a new challenge to your stated position could work to your advantage by settling all doubts once you’re able to present a solid defense backed up by equally solid facts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You enjoy doing nice things for others. But this is a good time to do something nice for yourself as well. You might want to start by planning a super-special getaway weekend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Some changes you feel you need to make might be reasonable and appropriate. But others might lead to new problems. Think things through carefully before you act. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Good instincts usually keep the sure-footed Goat on the right path. So, what others might see as stubbornness on your part, in fact reflects your good sense of what is worth supporting. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A period of introspection could lead to some surprising conclusions — and also equally surprising changes — involving a number of your long-held positions on several issues. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) The financially practical Pisces might want to take a sensible approach to spending as well as investing. Being prudent now pays off later. A romantic situation moves into another phase. BORN THIS WEEK: Your sense of curiosity keeps you continually alert for what’s new about people, places and things. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
