When you think of Arizona, do you picture all desert? The Sonora Desert certainly covers large portions of the state; but it contains a number of mountains and national forests, and of course the Grand Canyon.
The variety of terrain lends itself to many outdoor adventures including hunting, fishing, backpacking, hiking and camping.
