Schweitzer Klassifikation
Kirstin Olmon Phillips and Kelly Phillips, both transplants from other parts of the United States, fell in love with Arizona from the first saguaro. Now they combine 37 years of experience roaming the Grand Canyon State's many landscapes. They live in Flagstaff with their dog, Luna, in a house that never gets cleaned on weekends, when trip planning often consists of just hopping in the truck and picking a promising dotted line on the map. They never tire of providing vicarious adventures for friends and are thrilled to share Arizona's wonders with a wider audience.
