The state of Arizona is in the western part of the United States and more specifically, the southwestern region. It is well known for its desert geography and for red rock mountains like the region around the Grand Canyon. Arizona is also known for being a solid representative of the way the old west used to be in the olden days in the rural regions that dominate most of the state. The perfect way to get this taste of the west and a full understanding of Arizona is by taking a vacation at an Arizona guest ranch and experience it for your self.
