Hello. I'm from the midwest. I'll be driving through the Southwest region to visit relatives in CA this upcoming weekend. I figured, I'll be close enough, I've never been, maybe I can detour and visit Monument Valley. But, I'm an inexperienced roadtripper. This is my maiden voyage, and I'm solo. I don't know the region. How is the weather usually? Is there snow? Ice? Woukd I need an offroading vehicle? Or, will my dinky FWD sedan suffice? Thanks.

Me and my family are going to be staying in a friend's cabin in pinetop for a few days towards the end of February. We live in central phoenix and we rarely have a chance to interact with snow. Especially as a family. I known it's a bit late in the year (by AZ standards), but I'm trying to ascertain if there will be somewhere in the area that will be snowy enough for us to play in as a family (sledding, snowmen, snowballs, all that good stuff). I don't mind driving for a bit to get to it, but preferably not more than an hour or two at most.

Hello everyone! I was heading out to backpack in the superstition wilderness next week. Even though I'm not from Arizona, I have heard that the state is seeing very dry conditions. Does anyone know if common water sources (like Charlebois Spring, Reavis Ranch) have water?

This nonsense has spread here, so going to make it clear these posts are banned. Take whatever this spam / trolling / misinfo junk is somewhere else.

Im ISO a good calisthenics gym around desert ridge / north phoenix area or Scottsdale!

I was recently admitted into both the university of arizona and asu downtown for their direct admit nursing programs and I am having a hard time picking one. I really want to go to a school that has good social life and I know they both do, but I’m not sure how good ASU downtowns is. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on which school you think would be best or any experiences you’ve had attending either schools?

struggling to find the seats with the most immersion lol

Why do they call the Tanque Verde area in Tucson by that name? I know that it means green tank in English. But I'd like to know what is it about the area that inspired the settlers/developers to give it that name?

Hi Arizona Reddit,

Lived here for 15 years. What dashcams do you guys use? I have a 2 door coupe and interested in getting one for front and rear.

I like the idea of having cloud upload and other tech etc. but, I’m concerned about heat just like you are.

My fiancé and I are staying in Flagstaff and making the trip up to Page and Horseshoe Bend tomorrow. We were looking to leave extra early so we could take a long detour to see some views from the Grand Canyon Visitor Center area along the way.

Google maps insists that to get from the visitors center to Page we have to drive all the way back to Flagstaff before heading north. Looking at the map it seems like taking route 64 heading east to 89 would save a ton of time. I haven't been able to find anything online about this route being closed or off limits so... am I missing something? Or is Google maps just confused?

I just moved here to Arizona in Goodyear and came here from California. Looking for any activities and or looking to make some friends, since I am gay just trying to figure out what is there to do for fun.

So I am out passing through Williams AZ for a couple days out to the GC, and I was thinking of taking a hike out in the northern woods of Williams and I noticed that even though it’s national forest, it all seems gated off. Are people not allowed in the national forest? Is there a way in there that I haven’t figured out or what’s the deal with the kaibab national forest?

Hey AZ fam! Any folks around Page that know of outdoor communities such as run clubs or hiking clubs that I can join? I really appreciate everyone’s input! Looking to get out there and meet some new people!

There are 10 districts in Arizona where there are more registered independents/third-party voters than voters for the winning party this year.

A legitimate third party is a possibility!

I'm in the goodyear area, unsure of what number to call?? They are no longer living there

Update: I saw a comment that said I should find the realtor online, and I did! The owner called me and basically just said sorry, and she knows what's going on and needs all of them replaced, but for some reason, they can't get them to power off even after flipping the breaker. She said they'll be beeping until next week lol
