  • Top Five Things to Do This Fall
    Top Five Things To Do This Fall Written by Morgan Tanabe After enduring some of the Valley’s hottest temperatures in 2012, Arizona residents will finally be experiencing some fall weather. During the summer, Arizona locals may opt to stay indoors, but as temperatures finally dip below 90 degrees, fall in Arizona provides the ideal opportunity for seasonal activities. Although bundling up in hoodies to survive the cool air does not compare to sunshine and poolside tanning, Arizona State University students can still enjoy the weather through different outlets. Do not fret—here are five ideas to help you “chill out” while maintaining a budget. Enjoy happy hour specials Happy hour is an easy way to get out and experience some of the best restaurants in the Valley of the Sun. For ASU students, the Mill Avenue District provides a variety of quaint, charming and budget-friendly restaurants. Mellow Mushroom, located on the corner of Mill Avenue and 7th Street, provides a quirky array of pizza, salads and hoagies all made with the freshest ingredients. With an inexpensive list of draft and bottled beers and a full bar of daily drink specials, Mellow Mushroom is sure to not disappoint after a long day. The décor of the hip spot is adorned with funky graffiti art murals. Skateboard decks painted by local artists hang from the wall throughout the restaurant. While the eclectic and creative atmosphere is what attracts patrons, the grub is what makes the experience. Come to Mellow Mushroom to enjoy happy hour Monday-Friday 3:00 p.m.

Congress, Suite #100, Tucson, Arizona 85701 Jointly funded by the Arizona Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey STATEMAP Program. Cooperative Agreement #1434-HQ-96-AG-O 1474. Author Affiliations: 1. Dept. of Geosciences, University of Arizona, Tucson 2. Arizona Geological Survey, Tucson 3. Dept. of Geology, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff This report Is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for confonnity with Arlzona Geological Survey standards U-Pb GEOCHRONOLOGIC DATA FROM ZIRCONS FROM ELEVEN GRANITIC ROCKS IN CENTRAL AND WESTERN ARIZONA INTRODUCTION The U-Pb data described in this report were produced to determine the ages of granitic rocks in Arizona and the timing of metamorphic and deformational events. Two developments emerge from the data reported here that are especially significant. Two granites, one from the Mazatzal Mountains east of Phoenix and one from the Santan Mountains southeast of Phoenix, yielded dates between 1630 and 1640 Ma. This is unusually young for early Proterozoic granites in Arizona, although two granites in the Maricopa Mountains southwest of Phoenix have yielded similar dates (Eisele and Isachsen, in review; Joe Wooden, written communication, 1998). Possi­ bly, these dated granites are part of a belt of similar-age granites that roughly occupy the boundary between Pi­ nal Schist on the southeast and metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks of the Tonto Basin Supergroup to the northwest (Conway and Silver, 1989; Reynolds and Dewitt, 1991).

  • GYMOAZ07-19 Mount Baldy
    Mount Baldy Wilderness: East Fork Trail from Gabaldon Campground I drove to the Gabaldon Campground, just south of the East Fork Trail of the Mount BaldyWilderness #95, to meet up with a Monday hiking group comprised of 11 hikers led by TRACKS member and trail guide George Tichenor. There is a connector trail from the campground and it is very convenient for horseback riders — each campsite has a corral. We weren’t riding horses but it was a great place to start after a 30+ minute drive from Pinetop because of the large parking area but most important -- its outhouse. We followed the connector trail through a meadow and then crossed the Little Colorado River just before connecting to the East Fork Trail. The Trail travels through meadows and tunnels and climbs through a forest of Colorado blue spruce, white fir, Douglas fir, Ponderosa pine, white pine and ancient aspen — Pines so tall and so wide, we couldn’t connect hands while trying to wrap our arms around the trunks. We hiked past giant boulders and spires that towered over the trail and continued hiking until we reached the rock cliffs. It was here that we stopped and feasted on watermelon that was trekked in by Ron Miller, avid hiker, climber of highest peaks and retiree from the BIA, then turned around and headed back. The hike back descends a gravel trail -- where I gracefully slid and fell (saving my camera) -- and Miller, who was hiking ahead of me, turned around and said “Oh, let me help you” as he tripped over an exposed root crossing the trail, nearly falling himself and then appropriately named it “the root of all evil.” I have to say that there is a sense of camaraderie on this trail (or any trail).
