What are some of your favorite places to see in AZ? Could be outdoors or just some favorite places to visit (restaurants, towns, etc) My wife and I are planning on moving in the next few years and know that we have a lot left to see here. We are trying to put together a list of places we want to go before we leave. So far we have:

Jerome
Havasu Falls
Hannagan Meadow
Tombstone
Karschner Caverns
Flagstaff Lava tubes
Monument Valley
edit: add Canyon de Chelly

What else?

Some places we have already been:

Prescott
Crown King
Rim Road
Grand Canyon
Sedona/Oak Creek Canyon
as you can see, not really anywhere!

 

SoAZ and Elvota could fill some pages. How about that state to the East of AZ...?

I grew up camping in this area of AZ:

http://www.nps.gov/chir/

 

I kinda figured they could help out!

Thanks for the tip, Chiricahua just got added to the list!

 

I just moved from North Phoenix to WA...anyway, here are some places:

North Rim of the Grand Canyon
Four Peaks
Canyon Lake
Bear/Woods Canyon Lake(s) - hit these when on the Rim Road
Run Broken Arrow / Soldier Pass trails outside Sedona...here's a vid I have on YouTube
Run Box Canyon

If I think of anything else I'll add to this post.

 

If you're going to Hannagan Meadow anyway, may I suggest you do it by way of hwy 191 and run the whole route up checking out Morenci and the big mine as wel as Alpine and Nutrioso. You could also hike up Escudilla peak while you're in the area.

Also
Buckskin Gulch/Paria Canyon (not actually in AZ)
Antelope Canyon
Palm Canyon
Biosphere 2
Lowell Observatory
Sheep Bridge
Grand Falls (in March or April)
Raft the upper Salt River
Climb Mt Humphery if you're a hiker
Visit the Hopi Mesas (towns inhabited since 1150)

You have been to the Grand Canyon. Have you been in the Grand Canyon?

Gotta hit the rack. I'll try to think of some more.

 

Thats some good stuff!

Anyone heard of Eagle Canyon? Is out towards Hannagan Meadow I guess. Thats supposed to be pretty cool

 

A few more ideas...

Pacheta Lake & Falls
Malay Gap - Bear Wallow Cr/Black R.
Chiricahua Mountains - some good light 4wheeling and camping there
Pinaleno Mountains
Spring Creek west of Young
Cherry Creek Canyon
Upper Wet Beaver/Apache Maid
backway to Dugas, AZ
East Verde R./The Gorge/Hardscabble/Fossil Cr
Point of Pines AZ to Reservation Lake
Arivaca Lake
Hackberry Creek/Devils Canyon
