Four Hills Ranch

The Gods must think we're crazy. We let the rain fall off our roofs onto our soil, it washes the soil away and flows to the bottom of the hill. We then climb down the hill and carry it back up to drink.

The Code of the West 

The Code of the West was first chronicled by well-known western writer Zane Grey. The men and women who moved west in the 1800s were bound by this unwritten code of conduct. Integrity and self-reliance guided their decisions and actions. In keeping with that spirit, this information is offered to help existing and future Coconino County residents who wish to follow in the footsteps of those rugged individuals and live outside city limits.
