'''Arizona''' is a geologically diverse state of mountains, canyons, river valleys and mesas. As most interstate [[highway]]s span desert regions, road travellers sometimes wrongly assume the whole state is one vast, arid wasteland. Overall, Arizona has a ton of wide open land, amazing vistas and fairly friendly people. To see the best of Arizona, though, you will need to travel the smaller, scenic highways.
About 50% of the state is covered with Indian reservation and the other 50% covered in senior citizens.

'''State Route 260''' connects with 87 at Payson, heading east into pine tree-filled mountains, hills and valleys, with small towns like Heber and Show Low along the route. Winter skiing is further east at Pinetop resort near Springerville.
'''State Route 80''', heading south from Benson goes through the historic town of Tombstone, where gunslingers with blanks entertain tourists along the main drag. Worth the stop for a free visit to Boot Hill cemetary cemetery and a swig at the saloon. South from Tombstone is Bisbee, along Route 90. Once a mining town, Bisbee now has a thriving artists community and growing music scene. Check out the Blues festival in September and a very happening celebration at New Year's.
