Wickenburg is the team roping capitol of the world.

Worked on the Fire Department in Cave Creek from 88-96. Loved Cave Creek back then! I’m still living in the 85331...lol

[@RJDCR]

is there a vid that features Showlow ?

[@davidgodley521]

I'm now a retired trucker. I've been to Flagstaff in the winter and there was snow on the ground but what's amazing is that it was a dry cold so I couldn't feel the cold temperature too much.

[@cassiusdio6048]

Lol😂

I was born and raised in wickenburg. My grandfather was the sheriff in the 70's. It's the Santa Fe train, used to be in the park.

I absolutely don't comprehend the thumbs-down votes. This gentleman is showing everyone many beautiful areas of Arizona, on his time, at his expense, and while providing valuable information.

[@wannabetowasabe]

I only see one hands down vote on my screen, not a plural.

[@thomasottvideos]

@@wannabetowasabe..... @wannabe to wasabe ..... Wannabe: Perhaps you should reread my statement more slowly, because it made no specific reference to this particular video. Rather, it was a generic statement regarding negative people who have the temarity to habitually look for fault in the efforts, statements, and accomplishments of others. As a subscriber, I have seen other videos produced by Jeff receive one or more thumbs-down for no apparent or logical reason. Whether it is SINGULAR or PLURAL casting of thumbs-down is irrelevant. Nevertheless, I am always perplexed by the ideology and impetus of certain people who consistently find hyperbolic fault without logic or reasoning. The underlying message of my original statement: we should ENCOURAGE and SUPPORT KZbin content creators, like Jeff, to produce more entertaining and informative videos. By the way, Jeff's videos cost his subscribers and viewers ZERO DOLLARS. The other message is to be positive and not negative - except toward those who come out of the proverbial woodwork to cast unwarranted or unjustified aspersions.

[@wannabetowasabe]

@@thomasottvideos Well, you didn't make reference to this video, true, nor did you make reference to any other videos. That was confusing and I took a stab at what you meant. I got it wrong.

[@DonnieBAllDay]

Cave Creek and Carefree are amazing! Too bad so expensive.

[@joeheynen3519]

I just got back home to Alaska after visiting my grandmother in Wickenburg for the Fourth of July. At first glance it just seems like a really cool historic mining and cowboy town, but there’s a very genuine sense of small town community there. They had a large firework show and carnival type event at the ball parks with a nice classic car show. And if you’re looking for some of the best barbecue you’ll find anywhere the Ornery Hog was unbelievably delicious. The Wickenburg Ranch Golf Social Club was absolutely gorgeous also, had a lot of fun playing there. My grandma was saying they have pretty much nonstop rodeos throughout the winter too.

[@taunyawren8020]

Yes to going to New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, California! I lived in Sedona for about 19 years, nice to watch these.

[@randallbates9020]

Just bought a 40acre place 22 miles outside of St John's in Apache county, Quiet beautiful high semi arid with all kinds of wild animals and free range cattle. A peaceful private slice of heaven.

[@marcusdismas]

all kinds of wild meats and free range steak.

[@dsg325]

My wife and I bought 2.4 acres in Taylor. Looked at the 40 acre lots near St John but it was too far out for us. Plan on moving out there in two years.

[@randallbates9020]

@@dsg325 we had a rough winter this year. We got feet of snow but thankfully it doesn't hang around to long. We live in Elk Valley Ranch, many open 40 acre lots out here but you are correct it is a long way out. This country is so beautiful and the sunsets are the most spectacular that I have ever seen and I have lived in many places. I wish y'all the best.

[@michaeltaylor4984]

Just east of Snowflake. It is nice out here.

[@buffalogal9139]

I worked in AZ for sometime and yes, I found the people so friendly, open, an everyone just does their own thing. I loved it.

[@jampasurprenant1794]

Very beautiful and clean everywere . And so much History into. It's. Very interesting to learn about the state of Arizona

[@kamart8595]

I just love watching arizona film

[@tommaddux7186]

You drove right pasty Winslow's best attraction. The old Santa Fe Harvey House hotel called La Posada. It has been restored to excellent condition and opened as a hotel. Well worth a visit. Very beautiful.

[@michaelhargrove5930]

Beautiful hotel and we loved the Native American food and other goodies at the hotel restaurant.

[@unusualtanker1715]

My family used to have a cabin in Pinetop-Lakeside, spent a lot of my childhood there, loved it. Miss it.

[@garybarton9920]

First time catching you on ut. You have hit many of my favorite stops. I’m a snowbird the last 14 years. AZ is a treasure. I’m glad you included Crown King. It is worth the long slow trek to get there. I’m getting a lot of birthdays behind me so I’m slowing down a bit, but if possible we want to make it to Quartzsite again this Jan. depending on many factors facing us now. It has been a fun part of our adventures as there is nowhere else quiet like it. Thanks for the effort. I enjoyed it very much. I’m from SEast MO so it’s a world away in so many ways.

[@kathydaves9210]

My friends in the UK love seeing your post ..I share it with them in a group

[@jasmineflower4809]

Yes. I would like to see Ca., Ut and NM. Thank you for your beautiful videos. I am seriously considering relocating to the SW.

[@rickdavid1795]

I’ve been going to cave creek since 79. One of my favorites

[@traveldreamer4616]

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing. White mountain area and the Mogollon Rim country are my favorite.

so many beautiful places in Arizona

[@charlesheller4667]

Love Tubac and Patagonia.

[@kathydaves9210]

some out of state would be cool I have been to every place you have mentioned love your post keep up the good work ..much appreciated I am an AZ native ...I LOve AZ

[@dennishart2610]

Great video! However I really would recommend Winslow's La Posada Hotel. It's a restored Harvey House Railway Hotel and they have done a fabulous job. Great place and great food! Thanks again

[@buffalogal9139]

Loved the video; as I love Arizona. And, yes, the people are so very friendly and helpful.

[@ruthpizzo2951]

Thank you !!!! When I saw that dirt road at the end I hoped it would be CROWN KING and Bumblebee. I'll never forget that place. As kids DAD and MOM twice got us a cabin up there AND WE had so much fun. We also road a horse a little from a cowboy local. We had moved from PHILI. To so CA a couple YRS before that and DAD had a fascination with AZ. ( mom wanted to search for "Dutchmans gold"lol) IVE SEE lots of these towns and am temted if I leave so. Ca. Friends moved to SHOW LOW a few yrs back and love it. Thanks again. Can't wait for your next video

[@LeeGuy]

Absolutely enjoy your channel

[@xflashbacks]

I've lived in Arizona my whole life and never knew about Greer!

[@mistervacation23]

Excellent. Love AZ

[@kwsandman14]

Really like the videos so far. I grew up in a little town called St. David, not far from Tombstone wear I worked one summer. I have been to every place mentioned in the videos and enjoy the reminders from my past.

[@luvadventuresandart]

Yassss Crown King is a nice 4x4 trail love it. Found lots of quartz because of the mine right there. It's definitely a rough trail takes about 3 hours to get to the top

[@martiemacdougallcht2665]

I grew up in Wickenburg and lived in Cottonwood for a time. Hardly recognized Wickenburg from the video, it's been years since I've been there. Love them both! Worked in Sedona and found the people quite snobby. Lived in Snowflake and hated it. But Prescott is my favorite! Hoping to retire there in a few years

[@stevemitchellhomes8249]

Good vid as usual. Like you mentioned, vids exploring cool parts of New Mexico would be good too. Especially like the west central, and southwest area of The Land Of Enchantment.

[@shturmovik3033]

Nice video BUT you missed the highlight of Winslow: the La Posada hotel. It is an old Santa Fe railroad Harvey House hotel whose architect was Mary Colter. It is one of the best remaining (if not the best) Harvey House hotels in existence. You must stay at least one night and also eat at the hotel restaurant (The Turquoise Room) which has excellent food. While there you should get into the Harvey House history which is intertwined with rich history of railroading in the southwest including the Grand Canyon and the Lodge at the south rim (El Tovar Hotel).

[@leonardvernon7176]

Food was disappointing. Uncooked beans. Tiny Bran Muffins. Beautiful place. Plenty of Trains!🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃💕

[@leonardvernon7176]

You need reservations for El Tovar Restaurant. Nothing good on train but muffin....bring food!!

[@reinahart947]

Great video!!!! All those places are my favorites (Part 1). I usually take pictures, but with this video will make it easier to show everybody how beautiful AZ is!!!! Thank you for sharing it!

[@elultimo102]

Those statues in Wickenburg (Jail Tree, and prospector with mule), require a double take, being so life-like. Even close up, they look so real.

[@linfincher]

Lived in E Mesa at the border of Apache Junction for 2 yrs and loved it. Would love to move back. Wish I'd had the money and a road trip partner to travel to all these places. But did visit Sedona, Tombstone, Tucson, Williams, and Greer. And a few others.

[@meghanschuler4739]

Tubac is the best place too to get cowboy/cowgirl boots (even custom) and hats. The shopping there is no joke. Bring money, cause ull want so much of the cool stuff. The shops are awesome, but not for the poor. I got a birthday present from all my relatives pitching in for a nice set of cowgirl boots, they were 650 bucks. Which, if u know boots like that, thats not abnormal. Shits expensive.

[@tapcam4822]

Wickenburg was a stop along the Santa Fe Railroad “Hassayumpa Flyer” between Phoenix and Williams Junction where it connected with the Mainline of the Super Chief from LA to Chicago. Now it’s BNSF.

[@jm1551701]

I grew up in Wickenburg, I left in the mid 80s but I return every once in awhile I still have family and friends there, I live now in TN. Wickenburg is nice but real estate is getting high, I am thinking of though buying a winter home, there. if the prices come down a little. I will be going back after this Covid thing is almost gone, I have a lot of good memories growing up in the 70s and 80s there.

[@pbj4toast]

I was raised in Eagar, just a stone's throw from Greer. We often went fishing in Greer. We were told that we lived in "Northern Ariz." and I believed it until, as an adult, I looked more closely at a map. It is Eastern Arizona as far East as you can get without being in New Mexico, pretty much due east of Phoenix and halfway down the state. We thought that the Gila valley was Eastern Ariz, but they are south east. We are due east. There is another "Black Mountain" near Yuma. On the subject of coldest place in the lower 48, I recall in the winter of about '63 or 64 we had a cold winter. We used to watch the weather reports on TV to see whether Maverick, AZ would be colder than Fargo, ND as the coldest place in the lower 48.

[@jophoenix3919]

Love your videos very informative Thanks.

[@jeffdaigle5487]

At 10:45. Is that the cow from Tucson? It was the bull and a matador I think??? Just looks like it made me flash back to my childhood. Thank you.

[@ShOwStOpp3rr]

yea do more south western videos! you always put together great video/commentary footage,,id love to see New Mexico areas and other parts of the south west....be a great idea when you run out of ideas regarding Arizona

The cowboy hats on top of the street lights in Wickenburg is a nice touch.

[@quinieanndelosreyessigua]

Wow looks so cool....

[@phillipcarden7027]

Silver City, NM would be cool, also have you done any vlogs on Payson or Star Valley, AZ?

[@tapcam4822]

I’m moving to Florence AZ!! I’m excited!

Alpine az is about a 1,000 feet higher in elevation. Greer is extremely busy in the summer. Great place to hang out during the monsoons. Theres a natural spring in greer! Its sooo cool.

[@137NorthAve]

I've spent alot of time in Cave Creek. My daughter's family lives not far from there. Good food is available. I grew up in a small town and there is a good small town feeling. Beautiful desert landscape too.
