CHILLIN’ IN ARIZONA

Check out these ‘hot spots’ for cool fun

By Gremlyn Bradley- Waddell

I

Summer Vacation Guide 2013

f the mere thought of the Valley’s summer temperatures makes you sweat bullets, simmer down!

“There are lots of great ways to cool off even if you’re in the desert,” said Marjorie Magnusson, public relations manager for the Arizona Office of Tourism in Phoenix, and some of the most refreshing spots are high above, and even below, ground.

For price and proximity, though, air-conditioned museums can’t be beat, she said. From the Arizona Museum for Youth to the Phoenix Art Museum, the Valley has a multitude of offerings and many facilities have free or reduced admission on certain days. But these cultural oases aren’t limited to the metro area, so check out community treasures like Sharlot Hall Museum in Prescott when you’re traveling around the state.

Of course, nothing goes better with a hot day than water, Magnusson said, and the region’s public pools, water parks and nearby lakes are a liquid lifeline for those holed up in the Valley over summer; just remember to practice 4 water and sun safety.

Summer’s also an ideal time to check into a local spa, she adds, especially since rates often plunge when the mercury rises.

If you’re looking to cool down out of town, heading north into the mountains is one way to go, as higher elevations bring milder temperatures. Flagstaff makes an excellent stop, thanks to its bevy of cultural and recreational opportunities, some of which pack a little extra chill factor. For instance, the “lava tubes,”” known more formally as the Lava River Cave, extend for about three-quarters of a

mile underground outside Flagstaff and remain a pleasant (and dark) 40 degrees Fahrenheit most of the year. For a different approach to finding respite from the heat, catch a ride on the chair lift at Arizona Snowbowl, Magnusson suggests. Adventurers may also want to head west to Kingman and explore Hualapai Mountain Park, which rises up to 8,400 feet in elevation, or head another 60 miles or so northeast of that city to Grand Canyon Caverns, where visitors can snag some serious shade by taking an elevator 21 stories into the ground and viewing

the limestone.

And don’t forget there are plenty of options for fun out of the sun to the south.

Duck in and catch a tour of Bisbee’s Queen Mine, which stays a constant 47 degrees, or explore Kartchner Caverns State Park near Benson; keep in mind the caverns are humid, Magnusson notes.

Another family-friendly alternative for underground amusement is Colossal Cave near Tucson.

“I recommend it if you have really small children,” she said.

While you’re near Tucson, a summertime

visit to Mt. Lemmon, which at just over 9,100 feet is the highest point in the Santa Catalina Mountains north of Tucson, not only promises considerably cooler temperatures – usually about a 30-degree difference than Tucson – but also a chance to ride a chair lift at Ski Valley, “the southernmost ski destination in the United States,” Magnusson added. Be sure to dress in layers, as the weather can be unpredictable.

What more could a Phoenician ask for this time of year?

WET. WILD. WONDERFUL!

Summertime’s the right time for cooling off in the Valley of the Sun

By Paula Hubbs Cohen

BIG SURF

Tempe: The ‘grand-daddy’ of Valley water-parks, Big Surf opened in 1969. Since then, the park has exponentially grown to include not just the huge (2.5 million gallons of water!) surfable Waikiki Beach Wave Pool, but also a number of water-based rides and attractions. Some faves include the Otter Slides of Bora Bora Bay (designed especially for young kids); a variety of loop-de-loop body- and tube-slides; and Captain Cook’s Landing, which is spot-on perfecto for toddlers.

The Cauldron at Golfland/Sunsplash.

Mesa: Golfland/Sunsplash is not only home to a waterpark, but also features an arcade, laser tag, miniature golf, bumper boats and more. But it’s the aptly named — Dragon Tail, Bonzi Speed and The Cauldron — water-slides that host a bevy of screaming, sun-screened bodies during the summer, as does the nearly-sevenstories-tall Revolution that catapults brave souls into a splash-bowl. Not to be outdone, the similarly heighted Thunder Falls, a family raft ride, includes three, count ‘em, three, stomach-churning drops.

SCOOPTACULAR Located in Laveen, Scooptacular also makes its own ice cream.

But owners Nindi and Carrissa Wadhw set their sights nearly 2,000 miles away to dairy cows in Illinois. Alongside unique

SUGAR BOWL With a number of newer ice cream shops opening in the last decade, Sugar Bowl has been a Valley staple for over 50 years.

Their pink building located in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale is a familiar site to long-time Valley residents. Unlike other ice cream parlors, Sugar Bowl is a full service restaurant.

In addition to traditional ice cream flavors such as Creamy Vanilla and Mint Chocolate Chip, guests can also indulge in shakes, floats, sundaes and even sandwiches and salads. sugarbowlscottsdale.com 480-946-0051 4005 N. Scottsdale Road

Sweet Republic uses ingredients from independent Arizona dairy farms, as well as fresh fruit and toppings baked in-house, to offer Valley residents the freshest options. Sweet Republic offers 24 flavors every day, and with flavor options changing daily, you will want to come back to experience unique flavors such as the Salted Butter Caramel Swirl. sweetrepublic.com 480-248-6979 9160 E.

SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW

New attractions abound at some of Southern California’s most popular theme parks

By Stephanie Conner

C

alifornia is the world’s 10th largest travel economy, and it’s no wonder — our western neighbor offers a wide array of vacation options. From family theme parks to romantic beach getaways, The Golden State lures us Zonies in with promises of cooler summer temps and ocean views.

No matter how many times you’ve made the trek across the desert to Southern California, you can’t stay away for long. That’s because — as if you need it — there’s always a new reason to revisit your old favorites.

Summer Vacation Guide 2013

MONTEREY BAY AQUARIUM

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOLLYWOOD

Adventure seekers and movie fans alike can find something to love about Universal Studios. And if you’re both? Well, all the better. Visit your favorites 14 like Jurassic Park and

WaterWorld, and don’t forget the Special Effects Stage. Then, check out Transformers: The Ride, which opened last year.

The thrill ride, based on the movie franchise, puts you in the middle of — what else? — an intergalactic

war zone. Employing HD 3D media and Flight Simulation technology, Universal promises a mind-blowing experience that blends fiction and reality. universalstudios hollywood.com

A great place to take the family, the nonprofit Monterey Bay Aquarium boasts 35,000 creatures representing more than 550 species in about 200 exhibits. Whether you’re scoping out sharks or sea otters, enhance your educational pursuits with the aquarium’s interactive exhibits.

And here’s a reason to get going this summer: “The Secret Lives of Seahorses,” which introduces you to 15 species of seahorses, is the aquarium’s most popular special exhibition yet — and it’s only here until Labor Day. Plus, check out the stunning ocean views from the new aquarium restaurant and café, Cindy’s Waterfront, which opened in April. The full-service restaurant and remodeled

café and coffee bar offer seasonal cuisine and bestchoice seafood dishes.

DISNEYLAND & DISNEY CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE PARK

Your favorite childhood toys come to life, inviting imagination and playtime on a not-so-miniature scale at LEGOLAND. And if you were one of the visitors who thought the park was too big for one day of exploration, you weren’t alone. To make multi-day visits easier, the park opened the country’s first LEGOLAND Hotel in Carlsbad earlier this year.

You’ll be greeted by 5,000 minifigures, which line the wall behind the reception area, and the LEGO fun continues from there. An extension of the park, the three-story hotel has 250 LEGO-themed rooms. And more than 3,500 LEGO models — consisting of more than 3 million LEGO bricks — can be found throughout the hotel.

For the kid in all of us, Disneyland and California Adventure are family vacation staples. Take the opportunity to revisit all your standbys — Splash Mountain, Space Mountain and California Screamin’ — but don’t miss out on Cars Land, which opened at California Adventure last year.

Ride a giant tire at Luigi’s Flying Tires, where 6,714 air vents blow more than 1.86 million cubic feet of air per minute to keep the tires hovering just above the ground.

Then, cruise over to Radiator Springs Racers to take in the scenery of Ornament Valley and participate in a little friendly racing competition.

Spa at The Del, as in the Victorian Hotel Del Coronado, combines the hotel’s traditional, old-fashioned service with a spectacular Pacific setting. Known as a top spa in San Diego, Spa at the Del transports guests to a world apart from the daily hustle and bustle. These offers are wonderful ways to discover the Del. Spa Soirée, Thursdays, 4-7 p.m. (through Aug. 29) Save 20 percent on treatments while relaxing next to a vanishing edge pool, having a glass of Sangria and enjoying entertainment.

That’s S’More For couples, side-byside massages in a suite, followed by a private bonfire on the beach with champagne and s’mores.

125th Anniversary Special The Revival 1888 Facial includes an enzyme peel for an active and deep exfoliation followed by a double mask for lifting and tightening.

1500 Orange Ave. Coronado, CA 92118

Up Rancho Santa Fe way, The Spa at Rancho Valencia is turning heads for its dramatic renovation and expansion.

Set amid lush gardens and groves of olive trees, the Mediterranean-inspired spa features an exclusive skin care line with the benefits of herbs, flowers, oils and minerals. Treatments are listed as “rituals,” including a signature head-to-toe treatment, The Sixth Sense.

COLORADO: ARIZONA’S TEMPERATE TWIN

Take your vacation ‘outdoors’ this summer

By Aaron Berman

W

hen summer comes and the mercury ’round the Valley skyrockets, pack your bags for Colorado.

There you’ll find all the same outdoor activities you’ve come to love in Arizona, only with cooler temps and a few extra thrills to keep your body fit and healthy. (Remember, the increased altitude in Colorado means you’re going to get a much tougher workout than in AZ…but don’t overdo it.)

THE MANITOU SPRINGS INCLINE

VAIL MOUNTAIN’S ADVENTURE RIDGE A Mecca for skiers in winter, Vail Mountain, located in the central Rocky Mountains, offers up a wide variety of outdoor adventures starting in mid-

summer as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations.

Why not go tubing down the same hill used for snow tubing in winter? Hit the large climbing wall, or brace yourself for the main event: a 1,200-foot zipline ride. If you really want to get the heart pumping, tackle Vail’s two

aerial challenge courses, which include swinging logs, rope bridges, cargo nets and ladders – all while attached to a safety cable.

(It’s Adventure Ridge, not Suicide Ridge.)

Vail, Colo., Interstate 70 to Vail Exit 176; (800) 5038748; vail.com/activities/ adventure-ridge

Experienced hikers can challenge themselves with a one mile, 2,000-foot-eleveation gain at the Manitou Springs Incline.

Summer Vacation Guide 2013

The site of a 1-mile cable tram built in the early 1900s, the Manitou Springs railway bed was closed in 1990 after a rockslide, and quickly became a magnet for athletes, military personnel and hikers looking for the ultimate challenge: a 2,000-footelevation gain over that one mile. After hosting more than 350,000 illegal climbs over the intervening years, the incline was finally opened to the public in February. You’re now officially welcome to feel the burn of a lifetime.

ACTIVE AT ALTITUDE Looking to push your athletic ability to the next level? Head on up to Estes Park, one of the state’s most beautiful locations, to take advantage of a variety of physical training camps amongst pine trees, rock formations and abundant wildlife.

Camps include women’s running, squash and trail running. When you’re not pushing yourself to the max, unwind at the lodge, which offers stunning views of the Estes Valley and Twin Sisters Mountain.

And while in Estes Park, don’t miss the opportunity to visit The Stanley Hotel

upon which Stephen King’s “The Shining” is based; many claim it’s haunted.

Even if it isn’t, you can still order a glass of “Redrum,” find plenty of “Shining” tchotchkes for sale, and catch Kubrick’s film version on a channel that plays it all day every day.

Colorado river rafting a family affair

By Aaron Berman

U

sually when the subject of rafting comes up, whitewater rafting is what’s meant, which means plenty of white-knuckle adventure. Fine for adults looking to add a little oomph to their vacation, but tricky when children are involved.

Fortunately, a less-than-average snowfall last winter means less forceful rivers from snowmelt this summer. So dramatic has been the shortfall, a river route that normally would be a Class 3 (small waves requiring experienced paddling skills) might be a milder Class 2 (a little rough water requiring basic techniques). In short, this is the perfect time to take the family rafting, especially if mom and dad have been reluctant to take the plunge themselves.

There are so many rafting companies or “outfitters” in Colorado, just knowing where to start can be overwhelming.

To begin, check out the website of the Colorado River Outfitters Association (croa.org) for links to nearly 50 companies throughout the state that adhere to a strict code of ethics – not a bad thing in a profession that occasionally attracts guides who are more gung ho than safety minded.

But for a true one-stop shop, KODI Rafting is one of the best examples we’ve seen of an outfitter that does it right when it comes to family rafting. Answer a couple of questions via an online survey (whitewatercolorado. com/TripPlanner.html) and up pop trips tailored to the youngest in your party. While 15 year olds get a mix of rough water and scenery, those 4 to 6 are offered a “relaxing trip along a beautiful and scenic stretch” of the Upper Colorado River. And with more than 30 trips on six Colorado rivers, chances are you will find a location and experience level perfect for your family.

WHY ROCKY POINT? WHY NOT! Mexico’s quaint Puerto Penasco offers more than a sun and surf

By Nick Kostenko

J

ust like a child fresh out of school, you want to enjoy the sun this summer. But the Arizona heat can be tough to handle at times, so a trip south to Mexico may be just what the doctor ordered.

In Puerto Penasco, or Rocky Point, as we north of the border call it, you will find many and more of the same activities offered in the Valley. Whether you want to catch a sunset or go scuba diving, there is something for everyone.

GOLFING Rocky Point is currently home to three golf courses: The Links (designed by Phoenix-based Forrest Richardson & Associates), Peninsula de Cortes (designed by Jack Nicklaus) and the Laguna del Mar course (also designed

by Jack Nicklaus). The surrounding landscapes offer awe-inspiring views, including an estuary, the Sea of Cortez, and a salt water lagoon that is filled with wildlife. puerto-penasco.com/ golf.html.

SHOPPING

RECREATIONAL FISHING Fishing has been a staple of life in Rocky Point for nearly 100 years, and what better place to fish than the Sea of Cortez, called the ‘aquarium of the world’

by Jacques Cousteau.

Take part in a weekend tournament or just enjoy a quiet day by the sea reeling in Grouper, Black Sea Bass and Triggerfish, among many others. cometorockypoint.com

EL PINACATE VOLCANIC REGION RESERVE As one of the 13 wonders of

Mexico, the Pinacate Reserve offers natural beauty that is unparalleled in Mexico.

Covering a 30-mile volcanic field in the middle of the Sonoran Desert, guests can take a guided tour of the biologically diverse landscape. The Pinacate was once the training ground for some of the first Apollo moon missions, and also boasts maar craters, lavascapes and plenty of saguaro cactuses. visitaelpinacate.org, 638-108-0011

CET-MAR AQUARIUM CET-MAR (The Center for Technological Sea Studies and Aqua Culture) allows visitors to get up close and personal with many species native to areas of the Gulf Coast. Among the most popular exhibits are the sea turtles and sea lions, where you can feed and interacts with the animals.

Summer Vacation Guide 2013

Rocky Point has shopping experience for every budget.

Cholla Mall is Rocky Point’s most famous shopping destination, known by many as the ‘Rodeo Drive’ of the Rocky Point area.

Stroll through the area and discover the authentic Mexican souvenirs,

including pottery and jewelry, which line the paved streets. Visit the Malecon for even more souvenirs, and indulge in fresh seafood at the same time.

Cholla mall is located on Cholla Bay Road, Rocky Point. Malecon is located in Old Port.

ENCHANTING NEW MEXICO OFFERS VACATION ‘MUST SEES’ Discover cool caves, white sands, outdoor adventures

By Mary RIchardson

K

nown as the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico is a multi-faceted gem of culture, heritage and adventure. With no shortage of discoveries, the Southwestern state embraces visitors with charming shops, pueblo-inspired buildings and an enriching Santa Fe music and art scene.

In every way, the fabric of the past and the present seamlessly entwine, making a visit to the state a quality Southwestern experience — just without as much heat as the AZ. (Think of New Mexico as Arizona’s cooler sister.) The state provides countless ways for active travelers to explore.

Here are just a few of the many destinations to check out:

CARLSBAD CAVERNS

The limestone cavern displays astonishing proportions, uncommon beauty and a range of natural adornment. A maze of small passageways connects the spacious and intriguingly named chambers, including Chocolate High, Lake of the Clouds and The Rookery. In one room, gypsum dust coats the floors, while in another soda straw stalactites delicately dangle from the ceiling or numerous cave pearls nest on the rocky walls. Each chamber has its own distinct attraction or unique trait, giving the caverns both a popular and scientific interest.

WHITE SANDS NATIONAL MONUMENT

HIKING AND BIKING IN ALBUQUERQUE Noted for its extensive system of trails, Albuquerque is the home to Paseo del Bosque, a 16-mile multi-use trail that has gained much-deserved recognition as one of the best trails in the country.

The trail goes along the

leisurely Rio Grande west of downtown and remains clear of roadways. You’ll find stunning outlooks and intriguing geological formations, and with the well-populated wildlife in the area, you’ll most likely see deer, hawks, roadrunners or other woodland animals. Expect

to also come across all types of trail-users, including bicyclists, walkers, runners, in-line skaters and equestrians.

Along the way, enjoy the public art on Tingley Beach and Central Avenue, and make sure to take the opportunity to visit the Rio Grande Botanical Garden.

No place else in the country do you have the incredible chance to see glistening alabaster dunes like White Sands. The grand, scenic vistas rise from the Tularosa Basin and look out upon rolling gypsum sand dunes that span 275 square miles of desert. If you’re feeling adventurous, bring a board and some wax so you can slide down the steep hills.

ADVENTURE TIME

Looking for adventure this summer?

Pack your bags and head to Utah

By Gremlyn Bradley-Waddell

P

you can hold on,” she says, “but it’s not for the acrophobic.”

About two hours to the northeast is Bryce Canyon, which she said has “a lot of overlooks that you can drive to and look down at.” This is also the home of the distinctive redrock “hoodoos,” spires of limestone formed by the forces of frost and rain that look like Dr. Seuss creations.

Continue heading northeast on beautiful Scenic Byway 12 toward Capitol Reef, a lesserknown park near the town of Torrey. Visitors can pick fruit in orchards planted by pioneers, view American Indian rock art left by early indigenous people and explore the Waterpocket Fold, a 100-mile geologic monocline – or “wrinkle” on the Earth – which contains all manner of cliffs, canyons and bridges.

Travel further east toward Moab and you’ll find Arches, the site of thousands of fantastic rock formations.

The landmark Delicate Arch is one lots of folks might be familiar with, Cayford noted, because it’s depicted on the state license plate. A 40-mile scenic drive makes

sightseeing a breeze, and nearby attractions include a commercial zip line course, Hummer tours and cruises on the Colorado River.

Finally, less than an hour away is the remote grandeur of Canyonlands, Utah’s largest park. The Green and Colorado rivers separate the park into three districts (the rivers are considered

a fourth district), but be aware there are no roads connecting the districts.

“You have to hike in to get to most of these areas, so you really have to work to get in there,” Cayford said.

Once you do, though, the rewards are plentiful. “It’s common to run across American Indian artifacts, ancient kivas and pottery,”

she said, which, of course, are not to be disturbed, but are “great reminders of the ancient people that once inhabited the area.”

As with any adventure, be prepared! Before departing, check visitutah.com and park websites for complete travel information.

Summer Vacation Guide 2013

ack your bags and head north!

Yes, north, because Utah – in case you forgot or just never knew – boasts five dramatically different national parks that stretch across its southern half and are open year-round: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef and Zion. And unless you shun all forms of communication, you’ve heard about these natural wonders in the state tourism office’s catchy new campaign, “The Mighty 5.”

“These five parks are fabulous and very accessible from Arizona,” said Tracie Cayford, deputy director for the Utah Office of Tourism in Salt Lake City, noting easyto-use itineraries are posted on the website, visitutah.com.

Start, for example, at Zion, which means “the promised land” and offers picturesque hikes and slot canyons just mere hours from the Arizona border. Cayford says the trails in this well-loved, 101-year-old park vary in difficulty, but the popular one to the top of the soaring sandstone tower dubbed Angels Landing is not for those afraid of heights.
