In June of 2018, this man proposed to me in Bergen, Norway. Since then, our countdown to 10/10/20 began. As time nears, we can't wait for the big day. Many have asked why we pushed the date out so far. The truth is, we had too many trips planned to find the time to plan a wedding. It was a good problem to have we suppose. We often reflect on all of the sites we've seen and friends we've made along the way. Almost 4 years later and our journey has just begun. .

Glowy saguaros. I’m sure ready for the monsoon to arrive...
☀️ I usually escape to the Lemmon or another local mountain to get out of the heat but the areas up in the middle north of the state are tempting, too. What are the favorite areas to hike when it’s hot and sunny all day? Do you suck it up and stick with the low desert, stay in town for other outdoor fun, or head somewhere cooler?

The longest hikes usually have the biggest payoffs!
Which side of the water would you choose

We hiked Humphrey’s Peak in the middle of the night last week. Worth it to beat the crowds and see the sun come up. Yes, there was still snow to navigate through. .

@kgat15 Sedona
Sedona is located just at the base of the Mogollon Rim, an escarpment that runs east-west through the middle of Arizona and defines the boundary between the Colorado Plateau to the north, and the Basin and Range to the south. The Mogollon Rim is about 200 miles long, and ranges between 2000 and 3000 feet in height. In the Sedona region, erosion has gradually eaten away at the rim, moving it northward a distance of about four miles and leaving behind some of the most spectacular and picturesque canyons and buttes found anywhere in the world.
The deep red color for which Sedona is famous is due to the presence of hematite (iron oxide, otherwise known as rust) that stains the sandstone of the Schnebly Hill and Hermit Shale layers. The steepness of the terrain is due the fact that the top layers of the strata are composed of basalt and limestone, which are harder than the underlying sandstone. Water running off the edge of the escarpment eats away at the lower layers, creating the shear cliffs. Eventually enough soft material is weatherd away that it undercuts the cap layer, which subsequently breaks off in large slabs and falls into the canyons. This exposes new soft material and the process starts again, with the cliff face now twenty-odd feet further north than it was before.
