The good news: Yes, we DO have some venerable 2-door Jeeps at our Sedona store. 🙌🇺🇸
The bad news: you can’t rent either of them. 😎 One belongs to Nena, one belongs to Mary.

Pretty but deady 😘 the Sacred Datura flowers are in full bloom at the park.

All parts of these flowers are poisonous, and you may miss their showiness if you're only looking for them during the day because they are usually only open during late afternoon through early mornings. At night, they are pollinated by sphinx moths, a common nocturnal pollinator for desert plants.

TRAFFIC TESTS THIS WEEKEND

To help test the alleviation of traffic, on Friday, July 5 and Saturday, July 6 our Police and Public Works team will be conducting traffic tests at the Y and in Uptown, and on Saturday, July 6 at the new Pedestrian Crossing at Oak Creek. Staff will be monitoring and testing certain traffic scenarios at the Y and crosswalks in Uptown as congestion ramps up. Also, for the first time, we will test the use of the Pedestrian Crossing at Oak Creek, while closing the current street level crossing in front of the shopping areas. We are planning an official opening of the pedestrian crossing in the coming weeks, but because the undercrossing is substantially complete, it is possible to test its use this weekend.

Monitoring and testing will occur generally between the hours of 11:00 am - 6:00 pm and involve brief interruptions to vehicle and pedestrian traffic at various locations within the Uptown and 179 Business Districts.

Results of these tests will be shared at the SIM update to City Council at their 3:00 pm meeting on Wednesday, July 10.

PROTECT YOUR PETS

As temperatures begin to rise, please keep in mind that your dog's paws can be as sensitive as your bare feet.

Just imagine how hot a parked car can get.

Beautiful hiking weather for the rest of the week, with temperatures moderating down by 10 degrees starting Thursday. Sedona Fire has been busy on the trail systems with various calls for service. Simple ankle injuries are one of the most common calls for service. A good pair of hiking boots goes a long way to prevent injury. Always have a charged phone, know which trailhead you are departing from, and have plenty of water.

Trails closed today. Looks like Tuesday at the earliest, before there’s a chance to get on trails.

Stay on trails! Help us keep them open for all to enjoy!

“Why does Schnebly Hill Road get closed so much in the winter?” That’s one of our most asked questions.

First, Schnebly climbs in elevation almost 2,000 feet, so its higher elevation means more snow than in town.

Second, much of it runs along the north-facing slope of the canyon which means it doesn’t get a lot of sun in the road in the winter = slow or no melting.

Third, it’s a high traffic trail, so, unfortunately, once a couple of vehicles drive on the fresh powder, it packs down and becomes a solid sheet of ice, often before the USFS has a chance to close the gate. So, instead of a few days to melt, it takes weeks. That’s why, on busy weeks, they may shut the gate BEFORE a big storm comes in and either traps people in there or leads to the packed ice condition from vehicles driving on it.

Also, many people aren’t aware that the upper gates are closed all winter anyway, and only the bottom four miles of trail have a chance to be open at all as trail and weather conditions permit.

Know before you go! Check with the Red Rock Ranger District website or call us for the most up to the minute conditions. 928-282-8700

See reel on some of the work has been doing to try to keep this road open for 4x4 use.

Beautiful skies after the storm! Most trails closed due to ice this morning, but rechecking later today. Isn’t that view wonderful from heated seats, power windows and climate control?

07/01/2024

We are closed today until the storm passes. Most roads closed at the moment, including some highways. We recover a quick melt and reopen tomorrow, but please check highway conditions at AZ511.gov and trail conditions with us or at https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/alerts-notices/?cid=stelprdb5341633
