Just came back from a week-long winter flying trip from Seattle to
Sedona, Arizona, exchanging freezing wet Northwest winter with
magnificent views of red rocks and the dry desert air.

You got out just in time; last night Phoenix had it's first snow in 15 years
(according to my BIL).

Nice trip report...nice to hear about your intrepid endeavor!!

I highly recommend visiting Sedona in a small plane. Definitely one of
our best flying trips. Also for winter flying, bring a bucket and a
few gallons of deicing fluids. Overnight hangar or formal deicing
(expensive!!!) are often not available on the road. Having even a
rudimentary deicing capability yourself can save the day.
