If when you think of Arizona, you imagine a desert, you’re only getting half of the picture. Yes, Arizona’s southern portion is dry and hot, the perfect place to spend a winter. But travel north and you’ll find your car struggling to climb over mountains, you’ll find snow-covered forests filled with spruce and Douglas fir. In Arizona, you get canyons and hot springs. You get hiking and skiing, all at the same time of year.
