It's Getting Hot!



The Montezuma Castle National Monument is located just 3 miles from where we are staying at the Distant Drums RV Park, Camp Verde, AZ.


This is the best preserved cliff dwellings in North America. The 20 room high-rise apartment, nestled into a towering limestone cliff tells a 1,000 year-old story of ingenuity and survival in an unforgiving desert landscape.




The Sinagua culture reveals a hard-working people tending their fields, picking berries, fishing in the nearby river, and carrying water up ladders to the living areas.  Their lives were in constant survival mode (This is a model of what the inside looked like.) 


Beautiful and majestic Sedona, AZ






 It's no wonder they call Sedona the "red rock" country!
