I grew up reading a magazine called "Arizona Highways." It showed some incredible photography shot along some of Arizona's most scenic highways and byways. A lot of what was shown in that magazine was "other-worldly" in the surreal beauty of the landscapes pictured. Majestic sheer cliffs in vivid reds, oranges and purples, banded sandstones, gnarly veined granites, brilliant green cottonwoods in verdant river bottoms beneath sheer walls of rock... This certainly isn't Kansas... Anyway, I intend to try to give homage to some of the roads in Arizona that are now designated as Federal and State Scenic and/or Historic Roads, Byways and Parkways in this section of this hobby website of mine. |
