💡 Good to know
- Red-rock hiking in kind temperatures, Oak Creek swimming as it warms, and Jerome's cliff-hung saloons between — spring and fall are Arizona's gift seasons.
- Phoenix bakes at 43°C while Sedona runs ten degrees kinder and Oak Creek's swimming holes earn pilgrimage status — dawn trails, water afternoons.
