Sedona, Arizona, Plant Footholds on the Rocks


Sedona, Arizona is a small city in the northern Verde Valley, straddling the line between Coconino and Yavapai counties. It is famous for the red sandstone formations that encircle the town. They glow a brilliant red and orange at sunrise and sunset. Many people claim the existence of psychic vortexes which supposedly encompass swirling energy, offering healing and uplifting feelings. Pink Jeep Tours offers various tours on rugged off-road adventures showing off Sedona's red rock formations. We took the Broken Arrow Tour following a trail through Coconino National Forest. In the crevice just below, quite a few plants had established footholds in this dry environment, lacking sufficient topsoil — but somehow they survive.
