Arizona Travel Guide from Go American West
Arizona is the land of sun and desert beauty. From the awe-inspiring views of the Grand Canyon and Lake Powell to the wild-west fun of Tombstone, visitors will find a magnificent land of contrasts. You may enjoy the red-rock canyons of Sedona, the urban sophistication of Phoenix, the playful excitement of Lake Havasu City, or the sunny outdoor activities of Tucson, but whatever your pleasures, you'll discover a rich mixture of culture and amazing natural landscapes.

Brainy Geography: Arizona
Lists of places in Arizona such as airports, bridges, cemetaries, dams, lakes, mines, springs, streams, etc. You'll need a GPS to find them, though, because they only give the latitude/longitude and the name of the county, with no descriptive information.

Cochise County: Land of Legends
Discover the wonders of a subterranean world at Kartchner Caverns in Benson. Witness the dance of hummingbirds in flight at Ramsey Canyon in Sierra Vista and the majestic Sandhill cranes returning to their homes in the Willcox Playa. Tread the footsteps of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday at Tombstone's OK Corral. Experience an historic mining town turned eclectic artist colony in mile-high Bisbee. Explore one of the oldest military outposts in the American West – Fort Huachuca – now a modern center for intelligence training for the United States Army. Mount Up at a guest ranch and ride into the rugged Dragoon Mountains where Apache Chief Geronimo held the U.S. Cavalry at bay for months. In the friendly International Town of Douglas, tour an amazing number of historically registered buildings before visiting neighborly Mexico. Create Your Own LEGENDARY VACATION - Do it all in just a few days without ever leaving Cochise County. Located in the Southeast corner of Arizona, this is one of the most culturally, historically and geographically diverse areas in the American Southwest: Benson, Bisbee, Douglas, Tombstone, Sierra Vista and Willcox – legendary communities within a short drive of one another – less than a day's journey by stagecoach, it's said!
