Don't hike Camelback Mountain with flip flops, don't go on a triple digit temperature day, and never take your pet with you on a hiking trail on a hot day.
Unless you like heat. I was there outside most of the day in 114 degrees and I liked it. I dislike snow and cold weather and think any hint under 80 degrees is cold so I was loving it 👍
I agree! I don't know how many times I've gone hiking somewhere and see people's trash, if you can carry it there then you can carry it to a trash can. I really appreciate this video!
I liked your video, but most what you said can go for All States. Respect the State you visit, use common sense (wishfully everyone has it) and have a good time!
Born in the valley in the early 60's, one thing every one of our vehicles had in it and still has, is at least 3 gallons of water, they get dumped and refilled all the time, it may be tap water, it may be warm, but it is a life saver, plus never leave home without a towel, put it on the ground when changing a tire, or use it to dry off after using water to wash with if needed, etc. A comb in the glove compartment to remove cactus from your limbs and a piece of paper with pencil, things I know I always have with me,
@@robertzumstein4431 yes water is key to have even when taking the bus. I was told in the summer never leave home without water. Also if you wet the towel and place it on your neck you can keep your core temperature down. You can wipe your face too. If you fan the towel in the air, it will become cool and refreshing when you replace it back on your neck. I used this method when hiking down into the Grand Canyon (10 miles) and all the time I was down in the canyon hiking to each site that was 2 miles apart from each other, then back out (10 miles), it was life-changing, a truly wonderful experience. What a great memory.
Another thing regarding flash floods, etc. Don't camp in dry washes. It may look soft and inviting but you never know when that dry wash could become an intense flood.
You are so right on that, don't touch car door handles or even the steering wheel without it being covered. Buckling up with metal can be difficult with searing pain. Even being out in the heat can make your purse so hot you can't touch it. I try to have an umbrella when going out in the summer it makes a big difference. I have noticed it getting hotter each year because of more assfalt, cement sidewalks, buildings. Taking away the trees, gardens, fields.
As a native of Arizona, I feel like you forgot a few important Things NOT to do. 1. Do not travel according to the posted speed limit on highways and freeways. If it says 55mph you should be doing 65mph. 2. Do not lane camp the left lane, move over. Slower traffic should be in the right-hand lane. 3. Do not admit you are from California even if you are. 4.

Truth on the rain. It's such a blessing to get rain. I've been amazed with such breathtaking downpours. One time it was raining so hard I was standing in my doorway and noticed everyone also standing at their doorways. We felt the energy from the rain, it was glorious. Rain is so precious here. I even started marking when it rains on my calendar just to see how AZ is doing with weather. Rain is one of my prayers for AZ. I also pray for rain for California and the other western states.
Don’t forget that there’s a LOT more to Arizona than Phoenix and Tucson. "Dry heat" being milder than humid heat is absolute bs .. always carry water .. always, it’s more precious than gold. A LOT of people carry a gun ... don’t be stupid.
I am from California. I will say I am from Cali.. all day.. all night. Loud & Proud. I am not gonna hide where I'm from . I'm proud to be from Cali originally. I don't bring no particular political agenda with me. If I did.. it ain't none of your business. We all Americans trying to live our best lives. 🥃 Cheers, 🇺🇸
He needed to emphasize even more that driving your vehicle through a flooded wash is stupid. It doesn’t matter how much water you see or if it’s moving; the water is muddy and you don’t know if the road still exists, if the current underneath is too strong or if debris may lurk. And if you think your off-road badass SUV or truck is immune, I have pulled many of those vehicles out of washes and they are usually destroyed and unusable or require expensive repair. We had a family lose multiple children a few years ago crossing a flash flood crossing. He had a respectable vehicle. They’re dead.
Yes walking you can loose balance in six inches.you don't know what is underneath the water. he should have mentioned to not leave babies or pets in the car 3/4 pf the year. Winter only.
Without drinking enough water before a hike, your joints can suffer. Dehydration leads to shrinking of synovial fluid, which is the lubricant for your knees and other joints. I've experienced knee pain that stopped a hike. It was because I was not well hydrated. The pain can be bad enough to strand you. And it causes wear and tear that isn't good for your joints.
I want to add something about what I find very difficult living in Arizona. Yes, it gets extremely hot here, but what's so hard for me, is it can be 110 degrees during the day BUT nights "cool down" to only 95 degrees and I'm talking about midnight, to 2:00 and 3:00 a.m. During the summer, it's too hot to be outdoors sitting on your patio, even the pool water is too warm. It's still in the 100's in September. BUT! The winters here is nothing but gorgeous weather. Which is why those from the north escape to come here. You cannot beat the winters.
I have learned this here in eastern Oregon but I'm sure it's even more of a thing in Arizona. If you are out in the wild or even out in the country around an old house or rest stop if you lift something up like a rock or board or anything on the ground lift it up away from you and stand back. There could be a rattlesnake or scorpion underneith.
Yep, I was told to use a stick to turn over a rock because of the creatures that could be underneath. There are also poisonous lizards, poisonous centipedes, snakes like coral snakes also. My son when he was little picked up a baby coral snake, my father saw him and told him calmly to put it down. My son was lucky because the snake was so small it couldn't bite him even though it was trying to. You also need to look around before sitting down on a large rock because a poisonous creature could be close. While we were hiking, we had some experience with this, a lady sat down when we stopped and my father told her to be very calm and he took out his pistol and shot the snake (this was back in the 60's), the snake was so close to her and my dad was a great shot.
Walk your dog at nite after the sun goes down in hot summer months. Their paws will burn on that asphalt like its cool. Feel the pavement with your hand before you take the K9's out for a walk. Please.
In the morning is actually the safest option. Even after the sun goes down in summer, the pavement has still been sitting in the sun all day, so it can still be incredibly hot.
@@buffalogal9139 I started a company that manufactures air conditioned boots for your pets. They're safe for even Death Valley No really!! Only $19.99 plus shipping and handling.
I'm from Michigan and I have a great deal of respect for water too bad some of the farmers out here don't. Planting pistachio trees in the desert and the thousands of gallons to water them it's such a waste. It's no wonder the aquifers are being drained and the Colorado River right along with them. It'd be nice if you'd stop those farmers trying to grow things in a desert where it doesn't belong.
@@mruofacat a few farmers draining the aquifers for a miniscule amount of pistachios and stupid things. All at the expense of millions of people. I have no problem growing things that can grow in the environment that they're planted without watering them.
One more very important one.....Don't move here from another state (especially the one to the West) and expect to change AZ. Either embrace it here or just move back and everyone will thank you for leaving.
Most of the laws you mentioned are active in Ca too. We love our endangered plants and animals and take protecting them very seriously. Thank you for your list. I love AZ.
your reply indicates that you are neither responsible or respectable for fear that you might be considered a citizen of a civilized society, Being a citizen of society, any civilized society has some conformity involved, that does not mean that you are a cardboard cut out slave, haveing general respect and being responsible for yourself and your own actions is being human, I used to think, but reading comments like yours is starting to change my beliefs on that. For you seem to be one that goes out of their way to disrespect and not be responsible, for fear that you will lose your individuality. That is what I get from your posted comment anyway, if that is true then you are more of a slave to society than the ones that are responsible for their own lives, for you are not responsible and want others to do it for you. Talk about a slave type of life.
Moved to Phoenix in May temporarily for 1 year due to work. Can't wait to leave! Arizona is beautiful and the winters are phenomenal! But the summers are dreadful, the state and especially the Phoenix area is getting overcrowded and expensive. Homeless everywhere. It's definitely giving me that LA vibe that I despise
Homelessness is not just in LA. It's bad almost everywhere in California. We live in the Central Valley and they live in the river and even in the greenery by the freeway! The rent for a 2 or 3 bedroom apt here is at least $1,500 a month.
But the summers are dreadful Agree. During summer you are literally a prisoner inside your house: blinds shut and curtains drawn. Incandescent light bulbs are plain stupid.
Same here. I moved to California several months ago & I basically hate it. I really miss Arizona. This pandemic turned my life upside down 😷 Maybe I will make it back there someday. 🌵🏜❤
@@marlabaldwin7011 if you hate it, just move to where you love. I'm sure the last bit of Californians that exist there would appreciate it if people didn't move there just to hate it & then stay there being miserable making their lives miserable. I remember when I over heard a guy talking to his friend at a Google bus stop he said, "I don't even want to be here anyway. I hate this place." He was referring to San Francisco. A city I loved with all of my heart & soul. Until it was culturally destroyed by the tech industry & people who hated being there. It made me so pissed to over hear that conversation because I actually wanted to be there & I was getting priced out by people of that industry. It's unfortunate that the income gap has gotten so huge there that even if you're making a decent income you can't afford it. It's too bad you are in a place you don't like & that it has been an unpleasant experience for you. The Tech monster really destroyed that place long before you arrived. You should have been there when it was fun though, at one point it was worth some of the nuanced hassles.
Same! I lived in Phoenix back in 2010 then me and my 2 other siblings end up moving to West Memphis Arkansas! I plan on moving back to Arizona in 4-6 years from now
@@samurai9319 actually I am a California native. Back in the 80's I lived in the Bay Area & it was expensive & over crowded then. I moved back to my hometown & it to grew super fast & still is growing. It is awful. Overrun with homeless, drugs & gangs. It makes me sad to see the changes over the years. I always loved my hometown & couldn't imagine ever living anywhere else. Now I don't feel the same. I moved to Arizona 8 years ago & fell in love with it. Between the pandemic & family being in California I chose to move back home. Don't have money just laying around to up & move back. I am sure though that one day when I am in the position I will go & that will be it for me. In the meantime I am making the best of where I'm at. 🙂
THANK YOU, about the trash!! I used to live a mile from Box Canyon in Wickenburg and you would not believe the amount of garbage people who came up from "The Valley" would leave!! So rude and disrespectful!! My husband and I would go out after each weekend in our off road vehicle and pick up the trash off the trails. Not only is it ugly, it's dangerous for the wildlife out there, so that's what we did in the summers. Again, I appreciate you mentioning this!!
I left wickenburg got pushed out to much horse money forced out retired people and I was a fan of box till the trash valley people tore it up.i lived there through all the changes and will watch the redeo crap fade away and all the rich horsey people cry about there over priced horse land and homes they can't sell again sorry I'm bitter about the better than you wickenburg way.
It’s actually illegal to remove saguaro cactus from the desert. And businesses are not allowed to refuse to give you water. However, if you want a bottled water they can charge you for that.
@@lloyd1179 , he meant deliberately not cleaning up after your dogs. Wildlife don't have a choice. Last time I checked, dogs and humans are not wildlife.
Arizona is a desert in the midst of a severe drought. Here in Tucson, we get most of our water (CAP) from the Colorado River. We share that with 7 other thirsty states and Mexico - some of which are also experiencing a drought. Last night (June 15th), I was waiting for it to cool off to 90 degrees before watering my plants. It never did. It was 96 degrees when I finally went to bed. It's supposed to be 117 tonight at 8 p.m. We haven't had our annual monsoon rains for three years! So if you're moving here and planning to put in a lawn, please, don't. Do us all a favor and plant heat tolerant native trees instead. I haven't had to water my mesquite and palo verde at all.
@@qrator6882 Rock yards are definitely better than putting in a lawn. But we can do even better than that! In an effort to live in harmony with the desert, my husband and I dug up all the gravel and plastic on our yard and put in shallow basins to catch the rain and water our native plants. We get tons of water from our roof too. These catchment basins are filled with wood chip mulch that holds the water like a sponge. Our yard is now full of native wild flowers, bushes, and trees that attract birds to our cool little oasis in the desert. And those native trees don't require much (if any) city water once they are established.
Yet we have had record rain and snowfalls in northern Az and lake mead actually was riding when they were covering the massive drought that was happening even though the upper basin feed was cut down to 30% and the outflow was still at 100% of normal. They had to stop showing how low the lake was because it was riding during monsoons. No one wants to address that the upper basin flow is being shut off because Colorado is redirecting water to a resort and golf course they just built and cut the flow down to our lake reservoirs.
@@davidstrom597 Where is here? Here in Tucson, we had record heat and drought until the monsoon finally came. Trees were dying. Fortunately, we had put in three new cisterns (big rain barrels). I used the water we harvested from the monsoon to get us through the long dry spell. It's important to install rainwater harvesting basins and cisterns to take advantage of the rain when it comes. Not to mention drought tolerant native trees. I'm proud to say, we didn't use any city water on our landscape and garden this year!
He needed to add don’t shot semi automatic guns into old TV sets out in the desert or cactii. And don’t leave your shell casings. We don’t care if you shoot but being law and order means also following the law and not leaving trash.
Thank you for touching on respecting Native American Artifacts and History. I subscribed because of that! Hopefully your message gets understood by the many who have seen this :)
So glad to have found your channel. Keeping me informed and excited as my family moves to Phx in 5 weeks. This place is sacred. The land the stones the mountains and Valleys. There is something special about this place and I'm happy to be living there soon.
@@mamapegg hi! I've been here just over 6months now. There certainly is a palatable racism here. For the first few mo this ypp kept asking me what brought me here if I live here or just visiting. They see me and want to know what I'm doing there. I dont always feel comfortable eating out alone. I do t trust that they won't harm my food I've had a few sketchy experiences. I was racially accosted in a Walmart parking lot and told to go back to Africa. Aside from all of this, I still would not leave. The beauty and peace of Arizona I will not let anyone run me away from. I have seen so many beautiful rare butterflies, hummingbirds... The mountains are breathtaking. I am happy everyday to be here it feels like a huge blessing to have such a change in my life many people only dream of moving cross country. I did it and I feel very blessed to be here. The weed is amazing BTW LMAOOOO
Don’t open windows for fresh air, LOL. One of the most cleanest , beautiful state in the country , Embrace the beauty everyday. Do chores and dog walking early .
I was hiking I got too close to a jumping cactus had to spend a week in the hospital for a bad leg infection then a week in bed at home then I found out my insurance refuse to to pay my hospital and doctor bills.
Damn jumping cactuses anyway! Californians stop throwing your Mexican jumping beans out in the desert-- that's where these jumping cactuses pick them up!!!!!
I moved from SE Florida to Oro Valley (Tucson area). Lasted 3 years. Could not stand the cold in the winter or the heat in the summer. Not too mention the brown landscape, lack of water and the dirt/dust. The critters and insects were too plentiful and frightening. Did not have to endure any of the aforementioned in Fl. Finally, decided to sell my house and return to SE Florida in July. Arizona is unique but not for everyone. So happy to be back to the ocean and the lush flora and fauna. Temperatures are never extreme and there is so much to do. But we are very heavily populated and traffic is terrible. Still I am thrilled to be back🤗
Florida = horrific humidity, flying roaches the size of C-130s, sand fleas, hurricanes, and over population. But it’s true some people don’t enjoy the Dez.
I've hiked in Death Valley, and you would be surprised as to many people (tourists) have died from dehydration. Bring lots of water with you on a hike, especially during the hot months. Thanks for your point of view on conservation and respect for the environment.
Great advice, all. I love to visit our local historical sites around Arizona, and I follow one set of rules religiously: Take nothing but photos, leave nothing but footprints. Words for every local and visitor to live by.
Avoid overexposure to the sun on sunny days. In the winter it's ok to spend most of the day outside. But in the summer, you can sunburn in 15 minutes! My rule of thumb in the summer is: spend 9:00 am to 4:30 pm indoors. I don't really like using sunscreen but it is important if you're exposed outdoors. I'll put sunscreen on my neck and face and ears and wear long sleeves and long pants - even when it's very hot! (People have already mentioned water. In the summer, if you go on a 5 mile hike in the early morning, you're still going to want water - probably a couple of quarts.)
Even the Native Americans ware long sleeves and long pants out in the summer on their lands. It helps not to get heat stroke. I have had experience with heat stroke and that's no fun. I was lucky though, the people I was with, they ended up in the hospital, I didn't.
One law I found out when I lived in Tucson was you have to move over when law enforcement or other vehicles are on the side of the freeway, they don’t do that in California there’s no room to move over lol.
This is the coolest segment brother, It showed your kindness, caring, and respect for natives, wildlife, nature, and everything in between. You got my respect from a Minority.
Absolutely first class vlog ! I’ve lived here 22 years and you provided all the important info, and changed it up with each location. Excellent! Definitely a follower now.
If you live here, and have loved ones, whose lives are *WORTH* protecting; buy a gun and learn how to use it correctly. Owning a gun, no more makes you armed, than owning a guitar makes you a musician! An hour response time for law enforcement is not uncommon.
I was in Sedona yesterday for the day... 😍... Climbed Bell Rock, definitely necessary! I’m a year in here and ur on point and I’m still learning! Don’t drink AZ tap water!
Living in the Desert myself, not only should you drink water, but mix some electrolyte stuff with it such as gatorade. Also if your body can handle it, eat a banana or other potassium source in the morning. This will help you with the heat.
Great advice. I take a little bag of rock salt and suck on a few pieces during the day. You will sweat out your salt really fast and get severe cramping even to the point of death.
Great video, thanks! Speaking of water consumption and sustainability, is there any long term plan in place to manage that? Particularly now that the population in some areas is growing so fast
Having loved living in the white mountains several years I’ll add one. Don’t visit a res without paying the appropriate fees. You can drive through on state highways, or visit casinos and tribal motels, but a permit is required to drive on res roads and hike on res land (and in some places access is forbidden unless you have a tribal affiliation). You might only need a picnic permit or fishing permit. Always check with the tribe for a permit or permission before exploring.
Here's a history lesson! Pick the state where they haven't removed all the statues yet and you might have a chance of teaching history 😉 With socialism on the rise, I wish you well and good luck!
Back in the 80`s I moved my family to Oregon and it was the same situation , get your California plates off your car asap and never speak of where you came from.
Yes good tips!!! This has been one of the worst years for rain I've ever seen. Oh yassssss DUI in AZ no joke. Ok 🤣🤣🤣 I'm a native and a cowboy's fan never been a ban wagon fan. Love ASU
PLEASE heed those words of DO NOT LITTER! I live up in Kohl's Ranch and spend every Tuesday walking Tonto Creek, cleaning up the weekend camper's trash!! :( It still never ceases to amaze me the incredible amount of garbage people leave behind! If you want to camp in Payson, PACK YOUR SH*T OUT!!!
You mentioned why not to explore from the car. Cool spot to back you up on that. Leaving Oatman, going north you reach a point where the left side is all amazing mountain view. On a bend just outside Oatman we hit an overlook and decided to stop. The views were amazing but the views weren't the only thing. There were little personal memorials all over the place. No idea what it was or why, but something so unique I never saw anything like it anywhere else in the world.
There is a ton of Steelers fans here! Just like the cowgirls they are everywhere. You will love the climate here especially in the winter. Go buy a UTV and have a blast! Tear that desert up.
Midwestern University, HUH? I have a Min Pin that sees the Vets at the Companion Care Clinic there on campus. He sees them for specialized care. Just be prepared for the extreme heat!
I went to Canyon Lake once on a weekend. I saw so much trash left behind. A single tear came down just like the iconic commercial of the Native American from the 70s.
I am new to your channel and love how informative and down to earth you are, I am one of the many Californian’s who are be moving to Arizona as soon as my apartment is available in a Senior complex in Mesa Arizona, I am trying to learn as much as possible about my new home before I actually move, I spent summers and winters in the desert around Salton sea growing up and will have to reacclimatize my body to living in a dry climate again, plus I am a senior so my health is a priority, I am moving to be near friends who now live in Arizona, and I am looking to be more active as I get older, I have move numerous times throughout my life and have become a team follower in each state I’ve lived in, besides, I love the color red, and enjoy watching basketball, and baseball, I look forward to learning more about the history about each culture, especially Native American’s, again thank you for informative channel, hopefully through your tutorials, I will be a transplanted senior who you will enjoy getting to know me!!!
I moved to az in winter 2019. I left last year and I regret it California Is my home state and I’m now packing up with the family moving back. Miss it everyday. Amazing vibes there and cheaper. Besides the heat it’s calming.
A couple Arizona laws that will land you in the local jail for a felony are: 1. Accidental firearm discharge (don't report yourself) 2. Driving 45 mph or over in a school zone. 3. Driving over 85 MPH. Stay safe!

You also need to look around before sitting down on a large rock because a poisonous creature could be close. While we were hiking, we had some experience with this, a lady sat down when we stopped and my father told her to be very calm and he took out his pistol and shot the snake (this was back in the 60's), the snake was so close to her and my dad was a great shot.
i before e except after c. just kidding....
Good advice for just about anywhere. Leave no trace.
Good advice, number one don't trash the DESERT, keep America Beautiful Country ✌👍👍
Walk your dog at nite after the sun goes down in hot summer months. Their paws will burn on that asphalt like its cool. Feel the pavement with your hand before you take the K9's out for a walk. Please.
There are booties for your dog; it might be a little difficult to convince him it is in his best interest but it is.
In the morning is actually the safest option. Even after the sun goes down in summer, the pavement has still been sitting in the sun all day, so it can still be incredibly hot.
And remember that javelina HATE all canines and are likely to attack you and dog. On the other hand, cougars LOVE dogs, especially tasty LITTLE dogs.
@@buffalogal9139 I started a company that manufactures air conditioned boots for your pets. They're safe for even Death Valley No really!! Only $19.99 plus shipping and handling.
I live in neighboring New Mexico and pretty much the same rules for Arizona apply to us too!
You were blessed with a pleasant voice and delivery. Wonderful work, thank you and have a better 2021.
I'm from Michigan and I have a great deal of respect for water too bad some of the farmers out here don't. Planting pistachio trees in the desert and the thousands of gallons to water them it's such a waste. It's no wonder the aquifers are being drained and the Colorado River right along with them. It'd be nice if you'd stop those farmers trying to grow things in a desert where it doesn't belong.
go back to Michigan. Arizona farmers don't need your advice
@@mruofacat a few farmers draining the aquifers for a miniscule amount of pistachios and stupid things. All at the expense of millions of people. I have no problem growing things that can grow in the environment that they're planted without watering them.
It's a "use it or lose it next year" policy. They are punished for conserving water so they plant water intensive crops.
Don’t own a car with leather seats especially if you wear shorts.
Don't wear shorts if you're an adult male.
Myth. Just buy a windshield screen and you’re fine
Ouch!
Yep and don't touch the seat belt metal part use ur shirt so u don't get burned.
What about cooled seats and auto start?
One more very important one.....Don't move here from another state (especially the one to the West) and expect to change AZ. Either embrace it here or just move back and everyone will thank you for leaving.
I would amend that. Don't move to Arizona. Period. We're full.
@@mruofacat Haha i keep saying that for Idaho as well.. Doesn't seem to work they just keep on comin anyway.
I'm on my way East soon.
@@Nickjackson36 lol people keep moving to Idaho?
I would go one further, if you were not born here leave.
Most of the laws you mentioned are active in Ca too. We love our endangered plants and animals and take protecting them very seriously. Thank you for your list. I love AZ.
The video should be relabelled how to be a responsible adult.
Maybe you should make one on how to be a responsible adult or have someone do it 🤔🤨😶
Responsible adults are hard to find. This video is needed now more than ever.
How to be a good little conformist cardboard cutout 'citizen' slave.
your reply indicates that you are neither responsible or respectable for fear that you might be considered a citizen of a civilized society,
Being a citizen of society, any civilized society has some conformity involved, that does not mean that you are a cardboard cut out slave, haveing general respect and being responsible for yourself and your own actions is being human, I used to think, but reading comments like yours is starting to change my beliefs on that. For you seem to be one that goes out of their way to disrespect and not be responsible,
for fear that you will lose your individuality.
That is what I get from your posted comment anyway, if that is true then you are more of a slave to society than the ones that are responsible for their own lives, for you are not responsible and want others to do it for you. Talk about a slave type of life.
I concur
Moved to Phoenix in May temporarily for 1 year due to work. Can't wait to leave! Arizona is beautiful and the winters are phenomenal! But the summers are dreadful, the state and especially the Phoenix area is getting overcrowded and expensive. Homeless everywhere. It's definitely giving me that LA vibe that I despise
bye bye. don't let the door hit ya
Librals are like a virus........destroy one host(CA) then look for the next host....AZ
@@jstrat121 Not Liberals. Conservative real estate speculators. They, and their bankers win at both ends of the move.
Homelessness is not just in LA. It's bad almost everywhere in California. We live in the Central Valley and they live in the river and even in the greenery by the freeway! The rent for a 2 or 3 bedroom apt here is at least $1,500 a month.
But the summers are dreadful
Agree. During summer you are literally a prisoner inside your house: blinds shut and curtains drawn. Incandescent light bulbs are plain stupid.
I miss living there. Idk if I should move back tho. I never wanted to leave but I didn’t have a choice at the time.
Same here. I moved to California several months ago & I basically hate it. I really miss Arizona. This pandemic turned my life upside down 😷 Maybe I will make it back there someday. 🌵🏜❤
@@marlabaldwin7011 if you hate it, just move to where you love. I'm sure the last bit of Californians that exist there would appreciate it if people didn't move there just to hate it & then stay there being miserable making their lives miserable. I remember when I over heard a guy talking to his friend at a Google bus stop he said, "I don't even want to be here anyway. I hate this place." He was referring to San Francisco. A city I loved with all of my heart & soul. Until it was culturally destroyed by the tech industry & people who hated being there. It made me so pissed to over hear that conversation because I actually wanted to be there & I was getting priced out by people of that industry. It's unfortunate that the income gap has gotten so huge there that even if you're making a decent income you can't afford it. It's too bad you are in a place you don't like & that it has been an unpleasant experience for you. The Tech monster really destroyed that place long before you arrived. You should have been there when it was fun though, at one point it was worth some of the nuanced hassles.
I miss and love Arizona. I've had so many crazy experiences there. What an amazing place.
Same! I lived in Phoenix back in 2010 then me and my 2 other siblings end up moving to West Memphis Arkansas! I plan on moving back to Arizona in 4-6 years from now
@@samurai9319 actually I am a California native. Back in the 80's I lived in the Bay Area & it was expensive & over crowded then. I moved back to my hometown & it to grew super fast & still is growing. It is awful. Overrun with homeless, drugs & gangs. It makes me sad to see the changes over the years. I always loved my hometown & couldn't imagine ever living anywhere else. Now I don't feel the same. I moved to Arizona 8 years ago & fell in love with it. Between the pandemic & family being in California I chose to move back home. Don't have money just laying around to up & move back. I am sure though that one day when I am in the position I will go & that will be it for me. In the meantime I am making the best of where I'm at. 🙂
Hi I'm Moroccan guy my dream to come live in Arizona my only wish and dream 🙏❤️
THANK YOU, about the trash!! I used to live a mile from Box Canyon in Wickenburg and you would not believe the amount of garbage people who came up from "The Valley" would leave!! So rude and disrespectful!! My husband and I would go out after each weekend in our off road vehicle and pick up the trash off the trails. Not only is it ugly, it's dangerous for the wildlife out there, so that's what we did in the summers. Again, I appreciate you mentioning this!!
I left wickenburg got pushed out to much horse money forced out retired people and I was a fan of box till the trash valley people tore it up.i lived there through all the changes and will watch the redeo crap fade away and all the rich horsey people cry about there over priced horse land and homes they can't sell again sorry I'm bitter about the better than you wickenburg way.
You forgot to mention that if you do get swept away in a posted do not enter flood aera. You will be billed for your rescue.
Very true!!! Pay attention to signs.
Billed yes, assuming you make it out alive.
@@arizonaskye3917 correct. Don't know but I would not put it past them to bill your estate.
It’s actually illegal to remove saguaro cactus from the desert. And businesses are not allowed to refuse to give you water. However, if you want a bottled water they can charge you for that.
Just buy a recyclable tin bottle like I did when I got here at Costco, they came with 3 for $20.
The water thing is a myth
On the hiking trail with your dog after he poops DONT leave poop bag on trail. Carry it out!
Who cleans up the deer poop...or the bird poop..or the rabbit poop?
Very correct. Human poop too.
@@lloyd1179 , he meant deliberately not cleaning up after your dogs. Wildlife don't have a choice. Last time I checked, dogs and humans are not wildlife.
Please please don’t waste water ❤️🙏🏽
Arizona is a desert in the midst of a severe drought. Here in Tucson, we get most of our water (CAP) from the Colorado River. We share that with 7 other thirsty states and Mexico - some of which are also experiencing a drought. Last night (June 15th), I was waiting for it to cool off to 90 degrees before watering my plants. It never did. It was 96 degrees when I finally went to bed. It's supposed to be 117 tonight at 8 p.m. We haven't had our annual monsoon rains for three years! So if you're moving here and planning to put in a lawn, please, don't. Do us all a favor and plant heat tolerant native trees instead. I haven't had to water my mesquite and palo verde at all.
Yup rock yards are the way to go
@@qrator6882 Rock yards are definitely better than putting in a lawn. But we can do even better than that! In an effort to live in harmony with the desert, my husband and I dug up all the gravel and plastic on our yard and put in shallow basins to catch the rain and water our native plants. We get tons of water from our roof too. These catchment basins are filled with wood chip mulch that holds the water like a sponge. Our yard is now full of native wild flowers, bushes, and trees that attract birds to our cool little oasis in the desert. And those native trees don't require much (if any) city water once they are established.
Yet we have had record rain and snowfalls in northern Az and lake mead actually was riding when they were covering the massive drought that was happening even though the upper basin feed was cut down to 30% and the outflow was still at 100% of normal. They had to stop showing how low the lake was because it was riding during monsoons. No one wants to address that the upper basin flow is being shut off because Colorado is redirecting water to a resort and golf course they just built and cut the flow down to our lake reservoirs.
People here say it monsooned all famn summer last year
@@davidstrom597 Where is here?
Here in Tucson, we had record heat and drought until the monsoon finally came. Trees were dying. Fortunately, we had put in three new cisterns (big rain barrels). I used the water we harvested from the monsoon to get us through the long dry spell. It's important to install rainwater harvesting basins and cisterns to take advantage of the rain when it comes. Not to mention drought tolerant native trees. I'm proud to say, we didn't use any city water on our landscape and garden this year!
He needed to add don’t shot semi automatic guns into old TV sets out in the desert or cactii. And don’t leave your shell casings. We don’t care if you shoot but being law and order means also following the law and not leaving trash.
...... and not killing our wildlife and cacti for sport.
Where are these "shell casings" ? I reload those.
Thank you for touching on respecting Native American Artifacts and History. I subscribed because of that! Hopefully your message gets understood by the many who have seen this :)
So glad to have found your channel. Keeping me informed and excited as my family moves to Phx in 5 weeks. This place is sacred. The land the stones the mountains and Valleys. There is something special about this place and I'm happy to be living there soon.
We're thinking of doing the same. How are you and the fam? Any tips for moving into a new state?
@@mamapegg hi! I've been here just over 6months now. There certainly is a palatable racism here. For the first few mo this ypp kept asking me what brought me here if I live here or just visiting. They see me and want to know what I'm doing there. I dont always feel comfortable eating out alone. I do t trust that they won't harm my food I've had a few sketchy experiences. I was racially accosted in a Walmart parking lot and told to go back to Africa. Aside from all of this, I still would not leave. The beauty and peace of Arizona I will not let anyone run me away from. I have seen so many beautiful rare butterflies, hummingbirds... The mountains are breathtaking. I am happy everyday to be here it feels like a huge blessing to have such a change in my life many people only dream of moving cross country. I did it and I feel very blessed to be here. The weed is amazing BTW LMAOOOO
@@queenofhearts1138 I'm sorry about shitty Yt people. Way to stay strong and do you.
Don’t open windows for fresh air, LOL. One of the most cleanest , beautiful state in the country , Embrace the beauty everyday. Do chores and dog walking early .
I was hiking I got too close to a jumping cactus had to spend a week in the hospital for a bad leg infection then a week in bed at home then I found out my insurance refuse to to pay my hospital and doctor bills.
Take a comb and use it to pull them out.
Cholla!!!
Damn jumping cactuses anyway! Californians stop throwing your Mexican jumping beans out in the desert-- that's where these jumping cactuses pick them up!!!!!
I moved from SE Florida to Oro Valley (Tucson area). Lasted 3 years. Could not stand the cold in the winter or the heat in the summer. Not too mention the brown landscape, lack of water and the dirt/dust. The critters and insects were too plentiful and frightening. Did not have to endure any of the aforementioned in Fl. Finally, decided to sell my house and return to SE Florida in July. Arizona is unique but not for everyone. So happy to be back to the ocean and the lush flora and fauna. Temperatures are never extreme and there is so much to do. But we are very heavily populated and traffic is terrible. Still I am thrilled to be back🤗
Arizona > Florida
Floriduh causes brain damage. Keep that in mind.
Florida = horrific humidity, flying roaches the size of C-130s, sand fleas, hurricanes, and over population.
But it’s true some people don’t enjoy the Dez.
I've hiked in Death Valley, and you would be surprised as to many people (tourists) have died from dehydration. Bring lots of water with you on a hike, especially during the hot months. Thanks for your point of view on conservation and respect for the environment.
Great advice, all. I love to visit our local historical sites around Arizona, and I follow one set of rules religiously:
Take nothing but photos, leave nothing but footprints.
Words for every local and visitor to live by.
Avoid overexposure to the sun on sunny days. In the winter it's ok to spend most of the day outside. But in the summer, you can sunburn in 15 minutes! My rule of thumb in the summer is: spend 9:00 am to 4:30 pm indoors. I don't really like using sunscreen but it is important if you're exposed outdoors. I'll put sunscreen on my neck and face and ears and wear long sleeves and long pants - even when it's very hot! (People have already mentioned water. In the summer, if you go on a 5 mile hike in the early morning, you're still going to want water - probably a couple of quarts.)
Even the Native Americans ware long sleeves and long pants out in the summer on their lands. It helps not to get heat stroke. I have had experience with heat stroke and that's no fun. I was lucky though, the people I was with, they ended up in the hospital, I didn't.
i don't burn.
@@Earth.is.F1AT You're not that guy pal
The only thing you should ever leave behind in arizona is foot prints
And the only thing you should take is photographs.
Very correct. Unlike box canyon...
Haassayampa....weekends and trash dumpers
One law I found out when I lived in Tucson was you have to move over when law enforcement or other vehicles are on the side of the freeway, they don’t do that in California there’s no room to move over lol.
I think that's pretty standard around the country. Move over if you can do so safely. Otherwise slow down and use caution.
I moved here over a year ago and agree with you 100%.
Nice job with this. I would add don’t neglect your tires. Ever hear the saying, AZ, come on vacation, leave on probation?
You have hit the nail on the head it’s everything you said, especially the water, and fire. Thank you.
This is the coolest segment brother, It showed your kindness, caring, and respect for natives, wildlife, nature, and everything in between. You got my respect from a Minority.
65 degrees in phoenix today! 39 degrees for the low!
Enjoy it while you can..you got maybe 3 months more!
That’s cold! No way. Too cold
Come back in July and let us know how you like it. 😁
@@mindibear I was there in August at 114 and loved it. A bit warm but not too bad. When you hate snow like me anything is better.
Absolutely first class vlog ! I’ve lived here 22 years and you provided all the important info, and changed it up with each location. Excellent! Definitely a follower now.
What an informative and well thought out video! Good filming too.
Great video and audio quality man! You are getting better each time! Keep up the great work, and happy new year!!
It’s perfectly fine to root for another team in Arizona. There are so many transplants here you’ll have no problem finding mutual fans of your team
This Mesa is Wrigley Field South they love their Cubbies there. So much so Ryan Sandburg retired to Phx Metro.
I learned the hard way why the La Cholla cactus is called the jumping cactus. Never felt anything as painful as that. Luckily someone came to my aid.
I lived in the Lake Havasu area for 10 month’s. Absolutely loved it. Going back there some day.
Good words. I lived in Tucson in the 80s and for a bit in 2018/2019. Love the area and absolutely respected the land and history.
If you live here, and have loved ones, whose lives are *WORTH* protecting; buy a gun and learn how to use it correctly. Owning a gun, no more makes you armed, than owning a guitar makes you a musician!
An hour response time for law enforcement is not uncommon.
Don’t walk in front of a self driving vehicle
I was in Sedona yesterday for the day... 😍... Climbed Bell Rock, definitely necessary! I’m a year in here and ur on point and I’m still learning!
Don’t drink AZ tap water!
Living in the Desert myself, not only should you drink water, but mix some electrolyte stuff with it such as gatorade. Also if your body can handle it, eat a banana or other potassium source in the morning. This will help you with the heat.
Great advice. I take a little bag of rock salt and suck on a few pieces during the day. You will sweat out your salt really fast and get severe cramping even to the point of death.
You are right about plants. I spent a lot of money on plants when we first move here. I gave up.
Critters eat plants....lots. they are not afraid.
Great video, thanks! Speaking of water consumption and sustainability, is there any long term plan in place to manage that? Particularly now that the population in some areas is growing so fast
A lot of these things are just common sense
My great-uncle uncle told me : "Commonsense...isn't common any more."
Very correct!!!
Having loved living in the white mountains several years I’ll add one. Don’t visit a res without paying the appropriate fees. You can drive through on state highways, or visit casinos and tribal motels, but a permit is required to drive on res roads and hike on res land (and in some places access is forbidden unless you have a tribal affiliation). You might only need a picnic permit or fishing permit. Always check with the tribe for a permit or permission before exploring.
The tribal police take their jobs very seriously. Don't mess with them.
Good to know! I’m still crossed between either moving to Arizona or Tennessee to become a history teacher after I graduate from college.
Here's a history lesson! Pick the state where they haven't removed all the statues yet and you might have a chance of teaching history 😉 With socialism on the rise, I wish you well and good luck!
Totally agree with you , like no camp fire , feeding wild animals and most is misuse of precious water .
You forgot the most important thing about living in Phoenix area of Arizona.. Don't go to Northern Arizona and tell them that you're from California.
I moved from Los Angeles to Sedona.
People have been very welcoming to me.
Yeah people are not gonna be pleased to know that. probably not gonna like u.
Yeah, You might trigger an Arizona inferiority complex.
Back in the 80`s I moved my family to Oregon and it was the same situation , get your California plates off your car asap and never speak of where you came from.
@@LANGANPASQUAL You mean they might get jealous if you're from California but why?
AZ is a diverse and beautiful place. Enjoy it, respect it, experience it. And yes, drive hammered get nailed.
Dont put your shoes on without looking. Scorpions and centipedes love shoes on the ground
Thanks for the tip!
Yeah
I've enjoyed your videos. Learning lots if great things about AZ. We are moving there from cold midwest. Be there in a month!!!
Yes good tips!!! This has been one of the worst years for rain I've ever seen. Oh yassssss DUI in AZ no joke. Ok 🤣🤣🤣 I'm a native and a cowboy's fan never been a ban wagon fan. Love ASU
Moving back there in June - Probably the best decision I’ve made in a long time
PLEASE heed those words of DO NOT LITTER! I live up in Kohl's Ranch and spend every Tuesday walking Tonto Creek, cleaning up the weekend camper's trash!! :( It still never ceases to amaze me the incredible amount of garbage people leave behind! If you want to camp in Payson, PACK YOUR SH*T OUT!!!
I moved from central California I freaking love it here and don’t want it to change from the way it has traditionally been
Your AZ channel is the best on RUclips !
Here is a simple way to avoid any problem. Respect.
should be a mandatory video with review test for all out of state visitors/ new residents.
You mentioned why not to explore from the car. Cool spot to back you up on that. Leaving Oatman, going north you reach a point where the left side is all amazing mountain view. On a bend just outside Oatman we hit an overlook and decided to stop. The views were amazing but the views weren't the only thing. There were little personal memorials all over the place. No idea what it was or why, but something so unique I never saw anything like it anywhere else in the world.
Retiring to Arizona, born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA. I did ask my realtor if that would disqualify me, being a Steeler fan and all.
There's actually quite a few Steelers fans in Az
There is a ton of Steelers fans here! Just like the cowgirls they are everywhere. You will love the climate here especially in the winter. Go buy a UTV and have a blast! Tear that desert up.
all Fitz needed to do was make a tackle...had 99yards to do it...still haunts me
Aot of common sense advice - thank you for this vid! Your state looks gorgeous, and tours are always welcome. 😃
P S: Happy New Year!🎉🎇🎊
I’m glad I saw this video! I’m moving from Puerto Rico for vet school in Glendale!
Midwestern University, HUH? I have a Min Pin that sees the Vets at the Companion Care Clinic there on campus. He sees them for specialized care. Just be prepared for the extreme heat!
The respect for nature makes me feel like AZ is for me.
My Entire neighborhood was shooting off fireworks all night.
My dogs wouldn't stop shaking.
several nights in a row here in Chandler.
I went to Canyon Lake once on a weekend. I saw so much trash left behind. A single tear came down just like the iconic commercial of the Native American from the 70s.
Iron eyes cody...lol he wasn't even native American.
Good guidelines, we all have to learn to live Arizona.
Another great video Jeff !!
Man I really wanna move to Arizona. I live in NM now but I am just obsessed with AZ
We don't need any more socialists
Why it suck worse here
I am new to your channel and love how informative and down to earth you are, I am one of the many Californian’s who are be moving to Arizona as soon as my apartment is available in a Senior complex in Mesa Arizona, I am trying to learn as much as possible about my new home before I actually move, I spent summers and winters in the desert around Salton sea growing up and will have to reacclimatize my body to living in a dry climate again, plus I am a senior so my health is a priority, I am moving to be near friends who now live in Arizona, and I am looking to be more active as I get older, I have move numerous times throughout my life and have become a team follower in each state I’ve lived in, besides, I love the color red, and enjoy watching basketball, and baseball, I look forward to learning more about the history about each culture, especially Native American’s, again thank you for informative channel, hopefully through your tutorials, I will be a transplanted senior who you will enjoy getting to know me!!!
Beautiful state!
I respect the fact that you respect the local Indian Tribes and peoples. That's very Cool of you!
Nice in Tucson today!
love your channel ! Awesome work !
or pick up eagle feathers it's a federal offence
Moving back to AZ soon. Thanks for the beautiful video and reminders.
I will leave my donkey at home when I visit! Lol! I didn’t know some of these! Thank you! I like these types of videos.
Just don't put it in the bathtub you'll be fine.
love your comments. keep doing this as you offer much info!
and dont own a black car, white is worth more here
you forgot the number one thing not to do in az ,,,,never ever go barefoot
I moved to az in winter 2019. I left last year and I regret it California Is my home state and I’m now packing up with the family moving back. Miss it everyday. Amazing vibes there and cheaper. Besides the heat it’s calming.
Love the video I love Arizona because I live they great place 😁
Thank you for the information my family and I are moving to Arizona this helps people need to be respectful of Nature I agree you did a big help
Hahah... someone needs to talk to one of the guys in the FB group about the saguaro. MAN was he salty about how much people love them!
A couple Arizona laws that will land you in the local jail for a felony are:
1. Accidental firearm discharge (don't report yourself)
2. Driving 45 mph or over in a school zone.
3. Driving over 85 MPH.
Stay safe!
Don't forget to keep a sun shade in your car!
