Day 1 โ๏ธ Flew into Phoenix, picked up our rental car, and drove straight to Sedona.

Even with climbing experience, I felt challenged. Not recommended for beginners. Cathedral Rock: So much fun! A real โhands-and-feets-onโ climb, but much safer and beginner-friendly. The sunset view from the top made it all worth it! ๐โค๏ธ ๐ตโจ Sedona truly lives up to its reputation as a spiritual vortex โ itโs cleansing for the mind and soul ๐ซ. Whether youโre here for a relaxing weekend or an active adventure, Sedona wonโt disappoint! ๐ Pro tip: Make restaurant reservations in advance! ๐ฝ๏ธ #Sedona #Arizona #TravelGuide #Hiking #EnergyVortex #USATravel
