You will be in awe of the massive mountains and formations when visiting this special region of Arizona.

It is a beautiful area though my memory of a motorcycle ride through that area some 30-odd years ago is a bit fuzzy.

Very impressive - imposing, really. Great shot, Bob - looks like you caught it at just the right moment.

Kyle, in the event you ever are near Flagstaff and want to visit Sedona, take the 89A instead of I-17. That will take you through some beautiful country and Oak Creek Canyon where there are many photo ops along the drive. The 89A then goes right into Sedona. Don't take an RV though, too many curves, its steep and not much of a shoulder, but no problem in a car.

89a is what I took. Stopped somewhere near Sedona for pie.

Nice shot - that is indeed a beautiful area and you have captured the red rock very well.

An almost alien type of land.

Very beautiful colors, Bob!

This area of the high desert has beautiful clear sky, not much pollution and the red sandstone really stands out.

thank you Lori, Sedona and the area is the second most visited tourist area in Arizona. The small town of 11,000 really gets busy during the season. Put it on your S/W visit list, you will enjoy the view.
