Cottonwood

Posted January 25, 2002 22:55 | Category: Grand Canyon (1998) | #

We had a campground reserved in Cottonwood, AZ, near Sedona. We set off in the early morning from Sunnyvale, CA, intending to get there in the mid-afternoon after driving non-stop. But the VW doesn't like hills very much, and I had forgotten that there's a 4000-foot increase in elevation after you cross into Arizona. We chugged up the Interstate at 30 MPH for several hours, getting more and more tired. We finally got to the campsite well after midnight.
