Uptown Red Rock Escape

We finally made it to the today. Starting out of
The staff was friendly and excellent. The rail cars are spacious and comfortable with hearty snack provided and full bar available. The canyon ride while beautiful, would likely be best appreciated in any but the hottest months … today being particularly hot for the Verde valley.
But still very comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable. Walk between your seating car and the outside open car, chat with other guests. A good day-trip to consider when visiting Sedona and the local area!

I finally found this sandwich cafe open! I’ve walked by here many times, I guess mostly on weekends when I am typically in town. Turns out they are open every weekday, Monday to Friday. 10am-2pm.

So if you find yourself here in during the week, stop in for a
Portions are generous. Bring your appetite or a friend to share with. And ask for extra napkins!

Some phots from a couple hikes last weekend... Oak Creek (Huckaby / Jim Thompson Trail), and the Margs Draw-Twin Buttes Loop. Its tough to find myself in Sedona during inclement / gloomy weather - I am so often thwarted by clear blue skies.... I know.... but I love the more dramatic light and structure:

I did a great hike yesterday-twin buttes loop: start at broken arrow trail head. Go counter clockwise around using trails: hog wash, peccary, mystic, chapel, little horse to chicken point then back down on broken arrow with alternate options to take 1. Broken arrow all the way back or 2. High on the hog, twin buttes trail or 3. high on the hog, hog Heaven, hog wash back to the start.

Total loop 5-6 miles depending on options taken. Views of everything!

(Ok, the map shows I added a stick to Make a lollipop loop. I like to start at this little unknown parking lot up from circle K. Go up to Margs Draw and then south to broken arrow. That made the effort over 9 miles which wouldn’t be my recommendation to many people … starting from Brook arrow trail head, if there is space and you don’t mind a little dirt road access makes a more reasonable distance. )

Visiting Sedona? Looking for authentic, local, good vibes? Look for the regularly planned open dancing and drum circles that occur at both Yavapai vista and Huckaby trail head on various weeknight evenings. Might have to do a little search for schedule, or just ask and I can help.

It is rare that I bother with the crowds at the but last night I was hopeful for some storm clouds, lightning and a potentially amazing sunset. Sadly none of that happened … The typical evening, just as the sun dropped below the middle shelf of clouds, where I hoped it would light up the underside of the clouds hanging over the , there arose a new cloud barrier in the horizon to block the magic moment!
Fortunately, all was not lost! Since CandiceFromNebraska snuck this shot of and me and then shared it with us. Still a pretty nice show, despite the lack of brilliant color.
