Our readers crushed it again in July’s “Guess That AZ Spot!” challenge—and we love seeing how well you know this beautiful, wild, and weird state.
Huge shoutout to Eric Ledermann, Joni Langue, and Ester Bradley—each of you correctly identified all four of July’s landmarks:
Tonto Natural Bridge (Payson)
Chiricahua National Monument (near Willcox)
Mystery Castle (Phoenix)
Sonoita-Elgin Wine Country (Southern Arizona) This was the tough one!
Nice work, explorers!
Ready for August? We’ve got four more Arizona mysteries for you to solve.
This month’s picks span deserts, legends, and a card game that decided the name of a town.
Here are your August clues:
Layers of red, pink, and purple stretch across the horizon in this surreal desert landscape.
If these walls could talk, they’d whisper tales of poker games, can-can dancers, and ghostly gunmen.
You might do a double take—yes, this historic European structure really was shipped piece by piece across the ocean and rebuilt right here in Arizona.
Legend has it a card game decided who got to name this town. Today, a life-sized statue downtown tells the story.
Think you know them?
