Winter Weather
Posted By Kelsey Blegen, Mar 20, 2012
Before this adventure began I never thought I would see so much snow in the desert. We had planned to arrive in Window Rock, Arizona, on the Navajo Reservation, last night (Sunday) after spending a night in Las Vegas. We were supposed to start our volunteer training with DNA People’s Legal Services today. However, the weather and the Arizona Department of Transportation had different plans for us. Instead of crossing the width of Northern Arizona on Sunday, we spent it in Kingman, Arizona waiting for I-40 to reopen after a severe winter storm that closed 180 miles of I-40. Today (Monday) we decided to go for it and made the trek despite warnings of road closures and more winter weather. We were pleasantly surprised with a beautiful drive full of breathtaking views of red rock sprinkled with sparkly-white snow.
