With Thanksgiving over with, I bet you’re probably looking for a few ways to shed some of that turkey weight. Instead of heading to the gym, try going out into nature! It’s also a great way to avoid the Black Friday and other shopping crowds this holiday season. Hopefully these images will inspire you to get out and explore nature.
- Let’s start with a look at a classic Arizona scene as seen from a slightly different view.

- Here’s a pretty view of Arizona in the spring time. I wonder how it looks in this season?

- Another pretty flower view of a slightly secluded spot in Tucson.
JR P/Flickr This is found in the Barrio Historic District.
- This is a spot not seen too often by many people in favor of plenty of other places in the state. Perhaps that’s what makes it even more beautiful.This is White Pocket at the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument.

- Here’s another view of the place from a different location. Stunning!

- I think it’s fair to say most people have not seen this perspective in person.
Alan English CPA/Flickr This shows that the views are worth the effort.
- Here is a picturesque view from a spot on the Navajo Nation.
Alan English CPA/Flickr To be specific, this is a view near Betatakin at Navajo National Monument near Kayenta, not visited quite as often as Monument Valley.
- Hey, since it’s snowing in parts of the state now, here’s a look at a place you might actually get to see if you go out for a drive or a walk.
Michael Wilson/Flickr Not sure if you recognize it? This is from Thumb Butte Trail in Prescott.
- The image here is a little askew but still beautiful and I would guess very peaceful.
Nathan Siemens/Flickr Ah, to escape all that noise and craziness from the holidays!
- The photographer didn’t list a location for this image but it sure looks like a sight for sore eyes. Do you recognize it?

- Here’s another picture that looks absolutely stunning and certainly gives me a taste of wanderlust.
Bryan/Flickr This picture was taken in the Mount Lemmon area, according to the photographer.
- If there’s any way I would want to end my day, it would be with a beautiful view like this one.
