Mention
Arizona and most Americans conjure up the Wild, Wild West of their
childhood fantasies.
Arizona, is
the place, in fact, where the famous gunfight at the OK Corral
took place, in Tombstone,
Arizona.
Here, also,
is where Indian chiefs Geronimo
and Chochise led a pitched battle against pale face invaders
of the Old West.
Today, Phoenix
& Tucson
are top Arizona travel hubs, mixing urban amenities with Western
charm. Although most famous for it's deserts and hot, dry weather
- winter enthusiasts abound in this Rocky Mountain state with
Arizona
skiing and snowboarding resorts open from late winter
to early spring.
Throughout
the rest of the state, other major attractions include a stop
at Sedona
surrounded by spectacular scenery, the breathtaking natural wonder
of the Grand
Canyon, the Petrified
Forest, the Painted Desert, Hoover
Dam, and Fort Apache.
The old London
Bridge reconstructed at Lake
Havasu also competes with nearby Glendale
as a favorite student spring
break destination.
