This was a great tour. David is extremely knowledgeable about the area's history, the animals, the plants, and the sky. He shared a lot of great information. Well paced tour. It was a clear night, with an unfortunate full moon, but David made the best of it and showed us many constellations and features. Great snacks too! Will do this or another MyArizonaGuide tour next time we are in the area. Thank you David!
