Grand Canyon North Rim

There are many reasons why Arizona has been a scenic and historical focus in the Southwest. You can find here relatively close to each other all seven life zones present in world geography (tropical, desert, high desert, transition, Canadian, Hudson and arctic/alpine). Additionally the State has:

• The United States' contribution to the seven natural wonders of the world - the Grand Canyon.
• A fifth biggest College (U of A), fifth most populated City (Phoenix) and size as sixth largest State.
• As many diverse Native Peoples as are the contrasts in varied land.
• Snow skiing that is the most southern in the Country.
• Over half of all animal species in North America.
• More natural parks than any other state.
• More than 3,500 varieties of plants.
