WHERE IS THIS?

where is this? Horns Aplenty

Whereas their human counterparts tend to gather around water coolers for socialization, these bighorn sheep prefer to gather at a fire hydrant. It's a common sight in this small town in Greenlee County. Just as it was in the early 20th century, the main attraction here - other than the local wildlife - is one of the largest copper mines in the world. This photograph, by the way, was made by Don Lunt, one of the contestants in our annual online photography contest.

TOP 10 REASONS TO RIDE VERDE CANYON RAILROAD

10. Someone else does all the driving.

9. The gentle swaying of the train is like a three-hour hug.

8. You're encouraged to yell and scream going through the tunnel.

Canyon cliffs and a desert river are a hard combination of scenery to beat.

After eating there are no dishes to wash.

Bald eagles, dude, bald eagles.

It's educational but so much fun kids won't realize they're learning until it's too late.

Sit inside or outside; it's your call.

If you want to sing Chattanooga Choo Choo, I've Been Working on the Railroad or even Last Train to Clarksville, that's cool.

It feels like riding through the pages of Arizona Highways magazine.

IT'S NOT THE DESTINATION; IT'S THE JOURNEY
