Sedona is nestled in an unusually rugged canyon surrounded by an expansive National Forest – the Coconino – 1.8 million acres. Rising above Sedona is the Mogollan Rim – serving as the SW boundary of the vast Colorado Plateau which extends into 5 other states. The town has a strict building code: nothing above 2 stories; colours must blend into the natural surrounding environment. There is minimal street lighting, to create a dark sky in order to see the stars. We are returning to Sedona for a few days, to explore the area further – staying with a fellow ‘couchsurfer’ to gain some local knowledge of this incredible area, before returning to L.A.
