Doing a loop drive with a friend from back east who's never seen AZ. We're s ...

Oh, and I found out, after posting this, that someone had driven a car off the road down in Fossil Creek, and a couple people had died. Drunk and speeding, which is not a good combination on that road ...

The name doesn't ring a bell to me, I can ask him. But he's not been there long.

There are two Ellison Creek subdivisions, BTW, one that's on leased forest service land and one farther north (wher ...

Ditto on keeping dogs on a leash please.

You're also liable for 3X the value of any livestock your dog may injure and it is a misdemeanor with possible jail time and/or a big fine if your dog chase ...

The roadblock on the control road is gone now -- who knows what that was about. *shrug*

Tried to go down into Fossil Creek this afternoon, though, to fish -- FS maps and information and an earlier ...

They've closed the ENTIRE control road now, except for residents. There's a checkpoint up at the 260 and the Control Road with volunteer firefighters from Tonto Village manning it. I'm not sure if the ...

Drove up to my father's cabin last night -- it appears they've shut down a large portion of the Tonto Forest (WAY more than is on the maps) -- there were ropes up and "Forest CLosed -- Extreme ...

On the Heifer Project, I'd like to see some independent confirmation of the outcome of giving people livestock. I've been suspicious of this chairty -- it;s just too simplistic of a presentation. And ...

My personal record for being stuck on I-17 is seven hours. I hit a traffic jam just about a quarter mile past the bloody basin turnoff. Seems someone flipped an army truck full of ammo over. Traffic w ...
