Peach Springs Arizona - Willy Cyber Travels.

Sandee of Comedy Plus - nails Willy's travels again.

Yes, Sandee Willy is at Peach Springs. - More about Peach Springs.

Peach Springs
(Hualapai: Hà:ktəkwí:va) is a census-designated place (CDP) in Mohave County, Arizona, United States. The population was 600 at the 2000 census. Peach Springs serves as the administrative headquarters of the Hualapai (meaning People of the Tall Pine) people, and is located on the Hualapai Reservation.

Just west the Grand Canyon Caverns on Route 66, the highway meanders into the lands of the Hualapai Indians, a reservation that encompasses more than a million acres, including 108 miles of the Colorado River and the Grand Canyon.

Peach Springs is about 12 miles west of Grand Canyon Caverns and is the tribal headquarters for the reservation.

The “People of the Tall Pine” have been occupying these lands for more than 1,400 years, where the west rim of the Grand Canyon and the river below, has long since provided food sources and medicinal needs to the tribe. It was from the Haulapai's west rim, that the earliest visitors accessed the wild Colorado River below.
