Many years ago I used to hike into Boynton Canyon, one of the "vortexes" - there are also some cliff dwelling ruins there you can climb to, very beautiful, but alas you have to walk around the damn tennis resort to get into the canyon. <br /><br />Many of us who remember the community of Sedona hate what it has become ("spa land")....gone is the eccentric, artistic, spiritual community that was there, and now it is an expensive tourist place. But I am biased, and you might find otherwise. The land of the red rock is never going to change, it's beauty is immortal, and there is indeed great energy there. Bell Rock is another potent site..... Suggest that you save a lot of money by looking for a motel in Cottonwood, up the road - way cheaper. Check out the "little Daisy Motel".....20 minutes from Sedona. And wind up the mountain from there to Jerome, an abandoned mining town that has become a artist's community. It used to have a great bar with live music too, as I remember. <br /><br />If you like to drive, the Grand Canyon is not far, and not far either is Canyon de Chelly (in Navajo country), and Spider Woman's Rock. And also, going east, Chaco Canyon. Now that is a truly mysterious place, although the drive there is a bit rough - but spectacular. <br /><br />The San Francisco Peaks of Flagstaff are sacred to many native peoples.........a place of pilgrimage and visionquest for countless peoples of the past. You cannot fail to see them as you climb up the mountain from Sedona to Flagstaff. <br /><br />Enjoy!Lauren Rainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12157367890138761677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2042413503017463795.post-74894990144243664732011-07-07T17:18:57.581-07:002011-07-07T17:18:57.581-07:00I too have always wanted to visit this place and f...I too have always wanted to visit this place and feel for myself the history, the energy, the sacredness of it all. I am sure it will be an inspiring journey for you. Do tell us about your experience. Lauren, I am traveling out to Sedona in a few weeks for my birthday. I have always wanted to go, despite it being July and probably very warm, I don't care, I feel a real pull to go and see the land and the red rocks. Do you know of any must see or must experience mystical locations? I have heard about the vortex tours, but I don't want to pick a cheesy tourist trap tour versus a more educational spiritual historical tour. If you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. <br /><br />Hope all is well and you are enjoying the summer.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01435632350587380355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2042413503017463795.post-70335068277213553642011-07-07T12:07:15.268-07:002011-07-07T12:07:15.268-07:00That I will do, Suki!
