On May 6th, we drove through Oak Creek Canyon, which was a thrilling drive from the top of the mountain down to the bottom of the canyon. There were many switchbacks and the road was narrow but the views were worth it. We went this route instead of the interstate in order to stop in Sedona. What a nice town surrounded by the Red Rocks. Next stop was Montezuma’s Castle National Monument. Here we took a short walk to enjoy the ruins of a five-story, 20 room cliff dwelling built in the early 12th century by the Southern Sinagua farmers.
