Southwest Skies - Flying to Arizona


From the bright lights and dark skies of the Pacific Northwest, through the fog cloaked mountains of Oregon, fly into a brilliant winter sunrise in the Southwest Skies. The first rays of dawn paint the rugged mountains of Nevada and the distant Cascades a pink and pearlescent hue, while shifting layers of feathered clouds hide dry desert valleys and rolling snow frosted ridges. Soar down around the globe, past the wild wastes of Death Valley, the horizon crowded with the soaring peaks of the Sierra Nevada, and over the canyon country of the Colorado River to the sunny flat country of Phoenix Arizona, its sprawling mass girdled by tawny arid peaks.
