  • Arizona – May/June 2017 Sjef Öllers
    Arizona – May/June 2017 Sjef Öllers Our first holiday in the USA was a relaxed trip with about equal time spent on mammalwatching, birding and hiking, but often all three could be combined. Mammal highlights included White-nosed Coati, Hooded Skunk, Striped Skunk, American Badger and unfortunately brief views of Black-footed Ferret. There were many birding highlights but I was particularly pleased with sightings of Montezuma Quail, Scaled Quail, Red-faced Warbler, Elegant Trogon, Greater Roadrunner, Elf Owl, Spotted Owl, Dusky Grouse and Californian Condor. American Badger Introduction Arizona seemed to offer a good introduction to both the avian and mammalian delights of North America. Our initial plan was to do a comprehensive two-week visit of southeast Arizona, but after some back and forth we decided to include a visit to the Grand Canyon, also because this allowed a visit to Seligman for Badger and Black-footed Ferret and Vermillion Cliffs for Californian Condor. Overall, the schedule worked out pretty well, even if the second part included a lot more driving, although most of the driving was through pleasant or even superb scenery. I was already a little skeptical of including Sedona before the trip, and while I don’t regret having visited the Sedona area, from a mammal and birding perspective it is a destination that could be excluded. Another night in Seligman and more hiking/birding around Flagstaff would probably have been more productive. 1 Timing and Weather By late May/early June the northbound migratory species have largely left southeast Arizona so you mainly get to see the resident birds and summer visitors.

    HIKING THE GRAND STAIRCASE NATIONAL PARKS TRIP SUMMARY HIGHLIGHTS • Hiking through two billion years of geologic time as we descent 3000 feet into the Grand Canyon • Seeing Bryce Canyon's hoodoos as you hike through them • Experiencing the peace of Zion Canyon from the floor of the canyon and the rim • Learning about the diverse and fascinating geology of the area • Gazing upward at more stars than you ever knew existed Phone: 877-439-4042 Outside the US: 410-435-1965 Email: [email protected] TRIP AT A GLANCE Location: North Rim Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce National Parks Activities: Hiking Arrive: Plan to meet at 12pm at the Las Vegas airport on Day 1 Depart: Las Vegas airport in time for flights out after 7pm on the last day. TRIP OVERVIEW The Grand Staircase refers to an immense sequence of sedimentary rock layers that stretch from Bryce Canyon National Park and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, through Zion NP and Grand Canyon NP. The rock that is at the bottom of Bryce forms the top of Zion and the bottom rock of Zion is the top layer of the Grand Canyon. We've picked three National Parks along the Grand Staircase to hike: Zion, Bryce and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon National Parks are all spectacular and all very different from the others. The Grand Canyon is vast: it is 10 miles from one side to the other and a mile deep. Bryce is known for amazing hoodoos, the brightly colored spires of varied shapes; and Zion, with the tallest layer of Redwall Limestone of any canyon, is both majestic and a much more intimate canyon that fully deserves its name.
