It was 74 high and 43 low.

Just right for camping.

Very pretty place!

Is it up by Flagstaff?

Nice pictures.

Sure beats the mid 90's we've been seeing for the past week.

A heat index of 101 yesterday while welding on my trailer wasnt that comfortable.

It is.

We camped in Oak Creek and went to Locket meadow for the Aspens.

Thanks for sharing. Where in AZ were those beautiful pictures taken? I've looked around Arizona and never saw anything that pretty.

Thanks for the pics. I recognized that area as being around Flagstaff. The Aspens up this way are mostly falling green-cold weather caught them before turning. Good to see the golds.

We have lots of really pretty places in Arizona.

Check out my website and I have pictures from all over the state.

The newest photos are in the Photo Gallery link.

The Aspens were on the north east side of Flagstaff on the back side of the San Francisco Peaks.
