About your guide
Since moving to Arizona in 2012, I’ve logged thousands of miles on hiking trails and byways. After a 3-day adventure to the falls of Havasupai in the Grand Canyon, I was inspired to author the bestselling Arizona Bucket List Adventure Guide & Journal that details the top 50 natural wonders in the state.
