We used to love that when we lived out there. We'd take day trips nearly every weekend.

Keith, I didn't realize that you lived in Mesa at one point! You are right though (and Benny and I talked about this) Most people think of Arizona as a desert only...In actuality only a small portion of the state is a desert.


We can be in Payson or Prescott in less than an hour and a half-and during the winter both usually get a good amount of snow. We also have friends who have additional residences in those areas-which can make for a nice 3 day weekend.


We are heading for Las Vegas soon-and my sister just sent video of it snow at her house in Henderson, NV

Yes - I used to winter there (doing brake development and ride/handling work) which led to us living there from 1990 - 1994.

I came back here for my first design/release experience which was on the GMT800 pickups.

My buddy has a place in Pine. I was there in January one year and they had more snow then we did in Mi. Most people do not associate AZ w/ snow.
